Secure the data on the HDD
One of the biggest challenges when hard drives (there are bad sectors) is to save data or documents therein. Moreover, typically users rarely perform data backups to other media such as CDs or DVDs. To facilitate the rescue process (recovery) of existing data on the hard drive, plug the hard drive on another computer. Provided the hard disk is still detected, the possibility of data recovery can still be performed.
When the disk is mounted on another computer and it is detected, use recovery software that we can get on the internet. A good one is Easeus Data Recovery Wizard. With this software I was able to save data from the hard drive is already quite severe. Other software that we can use is MiniTool Data Recovery Wizard.
If no other computer or laptop, can we try to save the data through a medium such as a bootable CD / USB (Live CD) which contains a utility or program that can be used to check and rescue (recovery) data. Today many that we can use, such as Ultimate Boot CD, UBCD4Win, System RescueCD, Wondershare Live CD, Mini PE, Ubuntu Linux CDs and the like.
If the hard drive no longer detected when installed on another computer, then the recovery process is not an easy job. Because the possibility of having to open the hard drive and requires skill and special equipment. I myself have never been to such a recovery.
