Physical Drive failures
You may have dropped your drive or it just started making a clicking sound, indicating that a physical piece in the drive is broken. This is called a phyiscal drive failure.
In situations like this you will need to have an experienced data recovery specialist disassemble the drive in a clean room and repair the broken drive.

Frequently Asked Questions About Data Recovery & Transfers
Can Praetas recover data from a failing hard drive?
Yes. Praetas Technologies uses professional data recovery tools to recover data from failing drives, including drives that may no longer appear normally within Windows. Recovery success depends on the type and severity of the drive failure.
Can Praetas transfer data from an old computer to a new computer?
Yes. Praetas can help transfer data from an existing computer or drive to a new computer. This can be useful when replacing an older system, upgrading equipment, or moving important files from one device to another.
What is a logical drive failure?
A logical drive failure occurs when the storage device itself may still be physically functional, but the data is inaccessible because of issues such as deleted files, lost partitions, corruption, or a drive that no longer appears properly when connected.
Can Praetas recover deleted files or lost partitions?
Yes. Praetas can use industry-leading data recovery tools to attempt recovery of deleted items, lost partitions, and corrupted data. These types of problems are generally considered logical failures and are often easier to recover from than severe physical drive damage.
What is a physical hard drive failure?
A physical drive failure occurs when a mechanical or physical component inside the drive has failed. Signs can include a drive that was dropped, unusual clicking sounds, or other symptoms indicating physical damage to the storage device.
Can Praetas repair a physically damaged hard drive in-house?
Physical drive failures may require an experienced data recovery specialist to disassemble and repair the drive in a clean-room environment. Praetas can help identify when a drive appears to have a physical failure and when specialized clean-room recovery may be necessary.
Is my data kept private during the recovery process?
Praetas states that recovered customer data is handled under a strict chain of command. Once the recovered data has been returned to the customer, Praetas does not retain a copy of that data.
What should I do if my hard drive starts clicking?
A clicking hard drive can indicate a physical failure. If a drive is making unusual mechanical sounds, it is important to avoid unnecessary use of the device because additional operation may make the problem worse. Praetas can evaluate the situation and help determine the appropriate recovery path.
Can Praetas recover data from a drive that does not show up in Windows?
Yes. Praetas has data recovery tools capable of working with some drives that no longer appear normally within Windows. Whether the data can be recovered depends on whether the underlying problem is logical, physical, or a combination of both.
