If thats your case, when you think all hope is lost, it is not “lost”. Just turn it off, leave it off, and get it to a professional like me ASAP. Sometimes when someone has kept trying to boot up their computer over and over and over for hours when it wouldn’t start properly, by the time I see it, they’ve stressed the hard drive so much its now at it’s breaking point, essentially “killing” the drive, which can make it almost impossible to recover data with normal drive recovery means. Additional stress on a funky hard drive (like trying to read one bad sector over and over unsuccessfully, which it is stuck on and will keep attempting) can decrease the potential success of data recovery. In fact the more you continue to stress a hard drive that has a problem, the more you may lessen the chances of successfully getting your precious data recovered easily. The chance for success is usually best when the client got the drive to me early enough in the game and didn’t stress the drive too much. DO NOT keep messing with a suspected bad hard drive. Successful recovery depends on many factors. Over the years I’ve done a lot of data recovery jobs for many many clients with hard drive problems, so have a good deal of experience dealing with funky hard drives and with rescuing user’s precious data in one way or another. Many a grateful client who half expected to never see any of their family photos again, has thanked me for accomplishing a “miracle” in recovering their Pictures, Documents, and other files. Indeed over the years, the Apple store has referred many customers to ProMacNYC for hard drive issues or data recovery. Taking it to the Apple Store will not help you as Apple does not do data recovery. They will just tell you that your hard drive has a serious problem and that you need to seek out a place that does data recovery like ProMacNYC. We do data recovery from SATA and IDE hard drives. If you don’t have a backup and you are experiencing a problem with a hard drive, seek out an experienced professional such as ProMacNYC as soon as possible! This is a fact. When your hard drive does fail it is quite possible that you could lose all of your precious data on it if you do not have that data backed up. INSIDE OF A HARD DRIVE All hard drives will eventually fail.
