Computer Data and File Recovery
Few of us think about hard disk drive data recovery until it happens. Often it is then too late to save your critical files, at least not quickly and cost effectively.
For an individual, computer data loss can be very stressful. But losing mission-critical data can often be financially devastating to a business, perhaps even threatening continued viability.
In reality, the question is not whether you will suffer from file or data loss but when will it happen to you. Personally, it has happened to me many times.
Face the facts, it is really easy for us to accidentally delete a file or important data.
We are just an errant mouse click or a micro-second of mental lapse away from total disaster.
Even if you could some how be 100% perfect, 100% of the time you are using your computer, the truth is most of the things that can go terribly wrong are beyond your control.
Here are just a few:
- Lightning strike, static electricity, fire, smoke or water damage
- Hard drive mechanical failure
- Database corruption
- Malicious virus or worm
- Sudden power outage or surge
- Computer theft
- File or database deletion by hackers or employees
- Sudden jolt causing a disk head crash
