That I come to think of it by known-good I mean I have no idea , I have not actually tested this drive presumably checked it before. he gave it to me orlando data recovery if it helps it all for the tension of this situation. I still don’t know that this will actually work the way. we want I mean we could have screwed something up right. what’s your confidence level right now.
That’s not bad alright let’s go give it a shot so this is it moment of truth. now I’m not superstitious but I’m gonna cross my fingers. I’m not gonna knock on wood though cuz then we might like bump the dress hey no you think we’re gonna get it. now that’s actually a really important point just because we are able to read Orlando Data Recovery off of this drive does not mean that teryn can take it pop it back in a system and start using it again.
This is still a dead drive so what we’re doing right now is we’re pulling a bit -bit copy of all of the data off and we’re putting it on to a new one we are imaging the drive a megabytes a second sorry okay so I have to do this for another six hours scenario number. three is a firmware problem now for unusual issues deep knowledge of hard drive firmware design and a professional tool like a PC is necessary but the fees that you can expect to pay to someone.
Who can interpret this matrix level stuff right here would be anywhere from to easily thousands of dollars depending on the complexity of the problem. the good news is that many common firmware issues can actually be solved with pretty much a button press and that is where deep sparse tool. the rapid par wow this is taking a really long time to detect drive still works fine oh here we go it’s um a second those ages yeah we’ve got a petition. it’s not three partitions off of it already though and then we’re just waiting on the dishes to loading what a frustrating and tedious line of work but you get to deliver people.
Their data back right but but someone gets their data back there we go okay so now then we’re good it’s just that every time we have to plug in this drive. it takes a lot of time to detect it so wait so everything is slow like this funny story I was actually here two weeks ago and but we lost part of the data from that shoot last time we were able to show that the data was transferring at such a speed.
That it would take infinitely long to get it off meaning that the drive would be guaranteed to be dead by the time we actually managed to recover anything from it but it’s going even slower. why it’s just getting bogged down doing something that it’s not supposed to be doing so instead of giving us the data it’s just and this is completely custom hardware and software is that right correct.
Who you build everything from this from scratch it’s made of Canada. the reason is that off-the-shelf operating systems make certain assumptions about the hardware namely. that it works so as soon as the hardware doesn’t work it starts running into issues and that’s why any software product is going to get stymied by certain drive malfunctions.
