Many people panic when the hard disc on their laptop or desktop computer fails to operate or is inaccessible; or when they accidently delete important documents, pictures or folders. This is a relatively common problem and there’s usually no need to panic as data recovery is quite possible, as long as a data recovery technician is consulted and the proper procedures are followed.
Initially, one should identify the source of the problem or the cause of the data-loss, which could include mechanical hard drive failures, deleted files, overwrites, virus attacks, software corruptions; to name but a few circumstances. A professional data recovery expert should be contacted and consulted to determine the precise cause of data-loss and the appropriate line of action. The safest first step to take is to refrain from saving anything to the disc, to stop using the computer and to ensure that it is shut down and not accessed until professional service is attained. If an amateur access is attempted then the hard drive recovery process could become more complicated as the original information intended for recovery might be overwritten and the chance of a successful recovery becomes increasingly slim. By all means one should not try to reboot, resave, restore, format or create a new file in regards to any aspect within the computer as the situation of data loss is extremely sensitive, and requires the exclusive attention of a data-loss professional technician.
That being said, a professional data recovery expert can easily, quickly and efficiently recover all data that was lost due to any reason, ranging from power shortages to viral disc damages. So basically, as serious as the situation may seem at first, there really is no need to panic as the data perceived to be lost is usually not lost at all, and can be quite easily retrieved by a data recovery technician.
Hard disc recovery has become such a common demand that professional services are widely available throughout the UK that provide various offers, promotions and service support.

You don't have two cables?
If there both hard disks, that can rapidly damage the data on them, I don't understand the rest of your question, I assume you want to run both HDD? Then yes.
#4 by nacao on January 28th, 2010
So thats why old computers make that weird noise when you turn them on. I always wondered what it was, lol.
#5 by Michael J O on January 28th, 2010
No your notebook hard drive does not use the same cabling as you desktop computer. You need a 2.5 inch external enclosure, Place the notebook hard drive in the enclosure and plug the USB cable into your desktop. Windows should automatically read the new hardware and ask you which program you would like to use to open it. Click cancel and go to my computer and click on the new drive that should appear. If you don't see a new drive then you need to go into a more indepth data recovery. I hope this helps.

@hitman7112 well, i dunno… it still seems pretty magical to me. i don’t understand how it can delete a folder by moving that thing there. it doesn’t make any sense.
#7 by urbantool on January 28th, 2010
0:28 That must be a fragmented folder

I have a Sony, and without doubt, that's the best…!
I also have a LiteOn, which is a whole lot cheaper, but no where near as good quality.. It is however, streets ahead of the cheap and nasties..
If you can afford the Sony, buy it.. It will be worth the money, but if your a bit hard pushed and the top brands aren't in your price range.. Sony, Panasonic, Hitachi and Pioneer etc. I'd certainly recommend the Liteon offerings.. They are quite good, but do sometimes suffer from silly faults like the tray not closing properly, but are otherwise just about bullet proof.. The on-board editing software is very good..

cleaning will have no effect on internet connection, but will help your pc run more smoothly

Cool however its taking forever for this record player design to become obsolete. Im waiting for the day when theyll all be solid state and long lasting.

Computer technician here……Windows XP does all that in a step-by-step form. When you put it in and once it boots up, it will go through the stages. All you need to do is read and follow it's instructions carefully. Microsoft has made it easy so that it can be understood clearly. If you're in doubt, ask someone you know that knows how to do it. I am sure they won't mind helping you out by doing it for you. Hope this helps.

I noticed at the end that the arm didn’t snap back to the landing zone. That makes me afraid to transport a disk if the machine hasn’t been properly shut down prior.
#13 by efan_in on January 30th, 2010
they are called "External Hard Drive Enclosures" and a decent one is $30-$40. I would recommend getting one from newegg.com. They have an entire section devoted to them. unless you're from Canada, in which case, newegg.ca.
