Hard Drives Dropping

June 17, 2008 · Filed Under quick notes 

I sure am seeing a lot of hard drives dying recently. No real pattern though.

I will say that we are having better luck recovering data from the old PATA drives, as opposed to the SATA.

Fortunately, for our clients, we’re hitting about 75%, I would say, in recovering data. The bad part is – it’s expensive and there’s still a lot of work after we finish – unless we are lucky enough to grab an image, which is rare.
