Common Types of Physical Drive Failures We Repair
- Burnt or short-circuited PCB (Printed Circuit Board)
- Head crashes or read/write head failure
- Motor seizure or stuck platters
- Water, liquid, or fire damage
- Dropped external or internal drives

Physical damage cannot be fixed with software alone — it requires expert hardware-level diagnostics and component-level repair in a contaminant-free environment.

Data Recovery Process: How We Recover Your Data
Our data recovery engineers perform the following process:
- Inspect the drive for burnt components, cracked chips, or damaged traces
- Test power and spin-up functionality
- Use PC-3000 hardware to access the firmware and system areas of the drive
- Open the drive in a Class 100 Clean Room if internal parts like the head stack or platters are affected
- Use a donor drive (same brand/model/firmware) for head swaps or component transplant
- Create a sector-by-sector image once stable to extract files safely
