FAQ

A: Yes, but it depends on the extent of damage to the electronic components within the thumb drive.

In many cases, we can solder the connector back onto the thumb drive, ensuring the traces (microscopic conductive lines) remain intact and electronic components undamaged. This allows us to retrieve data from the flash drive by repairing the existing connector or attaching a new one to the damaged traces.

A: Yes, success depends on several factors, unfortunately with a relatively low success rate.

SSD Data Recovery differs significantly from HDD Data Recovery. While SSDs are electronic and may seem more reliable, this is a common misconception. SSD failures often occur without warning, lacking the audible indicators (like clicking or buzzing) associated with HDD failures. These failures can go undetected for long periods until the drive suddenly stops working, leaving no opportunity to retrieve data beforehand, unlike HDDs that often show signs of impending failure.

SSD failures can be detected if you are technically inclined and know where to look for indicators within your system.

SSDs store data using NAND chips, where cells degrade over time due to limited charge cycles. This degradation can lead to data loss and drive failure.

A critical factor for SSD Data Recovery is TRIM. Unlike HDDs, SSDs rely on TRIM to optimize performance by clearing NAND cells of deleted files. Once TRIM executes, recovering deleted files becomes impossible.

SSD controllers, especially newer models, encrypt data stored in NAND chips. This encryption adds complexity to data recovery efforts in case of controller issues, making recovery more challenging and time-consuming.

So Can I get my files after I deleted them ?

Recovering data from an SSD is rarely possible if TRIM has cleared the NAND cells. Specialized tools may help prevent this, but once TRIM executes, recovery is usually impossible because the data charges are cleared, making file reconstruction nearly impossible. Continued use of the drive after data loss further reduces recovery chances.

A: YES, you can, but it depends on several factors.

The success of data recovery depends on factors such as the drive make and model, storage size, and any unusual noises. Failures are categorized into logical, disk-level, and drive-level issues, each with varying chances of success and associated costs. Logical failures are typically easier to resolve, whereas recovering data from drive-level failures requires specialized tools and expertise, resulting in higher recovery costs.

Accidental file deletion or drive formatting are common in logical data recovery. Mechanical failures, indicated by clicking or screeching noises, require extensive rebuilds and incur higher costs.

Around 40% of cases involve logical drive failures, followed by 40% for disk-level issues, and 20% for drive-level failures. Many shops offer logical recovery but lack tools for disk and drive-level recoveries, often outsourcing without consent, leading to higher costs and privacy concerns.

At OmniDataPlus, we specialize in all three types of failures and provide comprehensive Data Recovery services. Your privacy and Data Security are our top priorities.

A: Yes, there is a risk for data loss as your laptop’s internal hard drive has most likely mechanically failed.

We recommend taking your laptop to a specialized data recovery shop that can handle these issues. These shops have the expertise and tools needed to assess and potentially recover data if necessary. Clicking noises typically indicate a mechanical failure in the internal hard disk. Continued attempts to power it on could further diminish data recovery chances.

At OmniDataPlus, we specialize in comprehensive Data Recovery services. Our fully-equipped laboratory handles everything from logical recoveries (accidental formatting and file deletions) to the meticulous process of safely Extracting Data from opened hard drives.
