New data recovery technology for the new Seagate drives (2.5" disks)

The latest innovations in digital recording technology and data-retaining materials are combining the high density, fast response, long retention time and rewriting capability. This extremely high data density HDD-technology allows now to store a one Terabyte per one single 2.5-inch disk platter.

This generation of hard drives caused also a revolution in data recovery science. None of the previously used the drive recovery tools and methods will work here. Moreover, inferior service is especially disastrous for these delicate digital gadgets.

Data Lab 247 hard drive specialists work hand in hand with leading hard drive engineers to utilize most innovative drive recovery solutions in industry.

Few examples of most often serviced Seagate drives we fix and recover in Data Lab 247

Mobile HDD 1TB ST1000LM035 1000 Gb

Description: 2.5″ Hard Drive
Family: Mobile HDD 1TB
Capacity: 1000 GB
Model: ST1000LM035
Rosewood
Part Number: 1RK172-568, 1RK172-568; FW: SBM3, LVM2

Most ST1000LM035 hard drive we received in the lab had head-clicking issue, and require internal repair. As you may guess, the slim design applied not only to exterior, but also to internal mechanism. These drives are very sensitive to any mistake in clean room, why it's important to select the lab with proven experience in these new drives.
The other group of failing HDD has no obvious signs of mechanical malfunctioning (no clicks, normal spinning spindle sound) but still has a serious issue with firmware and microcode corruption. Media-cache overflow may overlap and corrupt the user data area and require extensive programming efforts to revive these drives.

Description: 2.5″ External Drive
Family: Backup Plus for Mac
Capacity: 2000 GB
Part Number/Code ST2000LM007

Accidently dropped external drive mishaps are most often reason people apply to our lab. If you did not play much with dropped drive afterwards, and your local computer gurus did not overuse it in running computer tests, we can help to retrieve all or almost all of your important files, even when the disk platters are a little scratched in clicking. Of course, the best chance for successful data extraction from the bad drive will have those users who never powered their drives up after the dropping event.

Hard Drives we Recovered

Damaged Seagate Barracuda 1000GB ST1000DM003 external from Chicago Illinois, United States

The hard drive was inserted inside of LaCie's external case. The disk was on when the power surge happened, after that it could not be recognized by computer. In the computer shop the hard drive was removed from its external case and tested with the internal damaged. They also recommended the recovery service. I don't need the hard drive I just need the data from it, there are tons of family photos and home movies, all other files are less important, but would be nice to have back.

It's so great to have all our things back! It means so much to us. I'll recommend your data service to anyone who's got in the same trouble. It was very smooth process and we're very much happy to deal with Data Lab professional data recovery team. Our sincere regards. Dave B.

Dropped Seagate Momentus 7200 laptop from Justin K., San Jose California, United States

I dropped my laptop accidentally and now the drive isn't working, maybe not spinning - I'm not sure. I'm a student and cannot afford the local places that offer recovery services, but I desperately need my online books, assignments, projects etc. any help (student discount?) would be greatly appreciated. I never made any back ups and I have so little time to meet the deadline, so I guess it's an emergency service with a payment selection for standard time.

Can't thank you enough for your consideration to my situation. I got my files back in 3 days with the regular service, and upgrading the delivery back to overnight without charging a penny extra. You've been a huge help in the meltdown of mine, and I know the local recovery firms couldn't match even close what you offer.

Broken Seagate Momentus 7200.5 laptop from Gabe U., Toronto Ontario, Canada

This is drive of the client. She needs her MS office work (*xls, *doc, *ppt, *mdb, *rtf) and emails (*pst) to get recovered. Drive is not responded to software data recovery and that's all we could do. Hopefully you can do more in your lab with your level of expertise.

Glad you could help us with this. All looks good and the client is pretty happy. We presume we can do more business with you! From time to time we have customers, who are looking for data recovery and the damaged to the drive requires more than we do here. Thanks on this on again!
