A while ago. I had a customer whose pc had problem. Couldn't start with an error "harddisk not found". I took it back to check and apparently the harddisk has died and cannot even detect it. I tried the "wrap with newspaper and place in feezer" which worked on some of the SATA portable harddisks before. It still doesn't work.
Another expensive way if you really need the data content in the harddisk is to give it to the professional experts. They will charge probably a couple thousand ringgit. And that too, nothing is guaranteed that you will be able to recover your data and if the data is usable.
Well, how do we know how healthy is our harddisk? I found this link. Of course, it doesn't guarantee that it will tell me that the harddisk is healthy now might not be tomorrow or day after.
The point is just to have backups of backups. Cloud might be one of the solution but even cloud backup solution doesn't give us 100% security safe. Somehow, we would have to have endless backups of backups of backups..etc.
Anyway, here is the link for 3 ways to help you check your computer's harddisk health.
