2. How long does this External hard drive data recovery take ?
Answer: The time taken for data recovery is also related to many factors (such as: cause of failure, need to order parts, hard drive capacity, storage technology, presence of large number of damaged sectors on the disk and the difficulty of reorganizing data). The time taken for different problems is also very different. Therefore, it is difficult for us to give customers a specific time period before testing the hard disk.
Based on our experience in data recovery, we give an approximate time frame depending on the type and capacity of the failure.
| Approximate time | Business day |
| 500GB or less | 640GB-1TB | 1.5TB-2TB | 3TB-4TB | 5TB-8TB |
| Logical failure | 1-2 | 1-2 | 1-3 | 1-3 | 1-4 |
| Motherboard failure | 2-3 | 2-3 | 2-4 | 2-4 | 2-7 |
| Firmware failure | 2-5 | 2-5 | 2-5 | 2-5 | 2-7 |
| Mechanical failure | 5-10 | 5-10 | 5-10 | 5-15 | 5-20 |
| Too many bad sectors | 7-30 | 7-40 | 7-50 | 7-60 | 7-90 |

3. Can all data on this External hard drive be recovered ?
Answer: This is another good question. The possibility of completely recovering data is also related to many factors (such as: damage to PCB printed circuit board, main control, damage to disk, damage to firmware area, user sector data), some damage will result At complete data loss, some damage will result in incomplete or messy data, so it is difficult for us to give a precise answer before checking the hard drive status. This answer, we believe, is a difficult question for all data recovery experts to answer. 99.9% advertising is more like marketing. The data recovery success rate of 99.9% is based on the engineer's assessment of the hard drive condition.
4. Should I send us a new storage medium together ?
Answer: You can send the faulty External hard drive along with the new hard drive used to store the recovered data. But you need to pay attention: at the same time, the hard drive used to store the recovered data must be empty and must be greater than or equal to the capacity of the failed hard drive. You can also choose to purchase new storage media from us.
