Data Rescue is Not As Difficult As You Think

Human error and hard drive failure are the most common causes of data loss on computer, hard drive, USB drive, memory card, which is shown in recent studies. However, data loss prevention can not be one-hundred-percent guaranteed. As we all know that the most efficient way to avoid data loss due to different reasons such as accidental deletion, data corruption due to file system corruption, partition formatting and hard drive crash, is to store backup data in a physically separate location like external hard drive (the most widely used storage device). So, regular data backups are important way to prevent data loss from emergency.

What to do if data loss happens?
First of all, in order to preserve the recoverability of lost data, any write operations (copying, deleting, creating, altering files) are not allowed to be done on the drive your lost data located, even including booting up the computer. Since no matter on Windows or Mac operating system, the space of lost data is likely to be taken place or written-over by creating temporary files or files required to booting ( the OS or program ), which are resulted by any write operations, and finally lead to lost data completely unrecoverable. Therefore, as soon as realizing the existence of data loss incident, you should power off the computer properly.


In need of data rescue
After data loss event happens, data rescue is in urgent need. Data recovery is a process of recovering lost, deleted, formatted, corrupted or inaccessible data from computer, (internal or external) hard drive, USB flash drive, memory card, etc. The most common data rescue is to recover deleted  files after emptied recycle bin or trash or by “Shift + Deleted”. When files are “deleted”, the information of the deleted files is not removed from hard drive at the same time. In fact, only the routes to them in the directory structure are erased and the space they locate is marked as available for any usage but the original information of the deleted files still stays there. So, those deleted files can be recovered by specialized commercial data recovery software. Similarly, data rescue can be performed if data loss incident caused by the other reasons the above mentioned. Tenorshare Data Recovery is such a terrific data recovery application that can help you out with salvaging documents, pictures, videos, music files and other types of files you lost, deleted, formatted.

Exception for data rescue 
There are a wide variety of data loss can be caused by physical damage on storage device especially hard drive, USB removable drive. For instance, Head crash, broken tapes and failed motors are the three most common mechanical failures that happen on hard disk drives. In these cases, data rescue should be performed by specialized commercial services that developed by reliable computer repair company.
