Hard drives not responding and Xiaomi phone recovery

Seagate hard drive not mounting

My old Seagate 1TB external hard drive has stopped mounting to the OS.
Connecting to my Mac, the drive spins up, beeps loudly for 30-60 seconds, then powers down. Prior to this, it used to mount to the OS, but with a slow copy speed – presuming a power issue. It hasn’t been used for quite some time, so it might also be that.
What do you estimate recovery cost would be for a drive of this condition and capacity?

Seagate GoFlex NAS external hard drive has started beeping and the data on it is no longer visible from my Mac. Is this something you can help with and what is likely cost? I have a Seagate external drive and I dropped it, it’s flashing it’s blue light, making a bleeping sound every second. It’s a work hard drive and is in Bury, Manchester. Looking to get the files off it it, it’s 2tb but imagine the data is around 1tb. I can send another HD with it to put the data on if that would save costs.

A 4T external (Seagate Passport) USB disk has failed. It wasn’t dropped. No weird noises or anything, motor still operates, but disk is not accessible under either Windows (disk never shows up) or Linux Mint (disk does show up, but no files visible).
Failure occurred while copying 500G across (under Windows) from another disk.
Please let me know how to get it to you. I used to drop defective disks off in Glasgow, but I think I am now forced to use the post as Glasgow’s not handy anymore.

Hello, my phone xiaomi mi a3 is broken. It!s still turning off and on constantly. I was already in different service but they told me if they will fix it my data gonna be gone.

USB stick not recognised

The PC does not recognise the USB stick, so I cannot have access to the USB files. The USB itself is intact. I tried it on different PCs, but I still could not have access to the files. It makes the characteristic sound when you fit the USB into the PC, but, nothing after that. Is there a way to retrieve the files from the USB? I would appreciate your help.

Data Recovery: WD Elements and Seagate Hard Drives

WD Elements Data Recovery

I have a WD Elements 2TB external hd that just stopped working. I opened it since I saw in some vlogs that my PCB might be broken, and so it is by the part where you insert the cord.
WD Element 2TB
S/N: WX11AA854LXT
MDL: WD20SMZW-11JW8S0
Can it still be fixed? Can I just a new WD Elements 2TB and replaced the broken one?
Is there any way that could recover my files (pics and videos).
How much would it be and what to do if ever?

I have a WD My Passport External Hard Drive on which I transferred a lot of photos and files on to a while ago from my Desktop PC. Recently I tried to access the Hard Drive via my Laptop but nothing happens. All I get is a whirring sound from the External Drive together with a loud “clicking” noise. I am based in Kent and I would like to access the files and photos and was wondering whether you would be able to investigate the problem with my External Drive.

Seagate 2TB HDD recovery

I have a Seagate 2TB HDD (Seagate ST2000DM001) that suddenty stopped working one day to the next.
The symptoms are, starts spinning up on PC boot, 2 clicks, then stops spinning and doesn’t resume.
HDD not visible in bios or device manager. I’m located in Reading near Kent.
Data is important to me so would like to enquire on possibility of recovery.
Most important is my Pictures folder with years of travel snaps.

SSD

I have a solid-state hard disk drive which is no longer functioning. It is a Samsung PM851 mSATA 256 GB. I think there may be some physical defect preventing correct operation, is this the sort of thing that you would be able to deal with? I would be interested in receiving a list of directories and files found to see what can be recovered.

Lost photos

I lost all my photos, years of memories everything was on the computer. I had a repairman look at it he fixed the computer and put a new hard drive in but he said he was unable to fix it however a specialist might be able to. Obviously there’s thousands of photos on the hard drive so I don’t know if they will all be there. I have no idea how it broke. Something my little brother did, but it lost a everything. The hard drive is out of the computer and ready to be seen by a specialist.

WD SSD Hard Drive beeping and not recognised

I would like to know how much would you charge me for recovering my data from my Western Digital SSD Elements external hard drive?
The power supply was lost, so I bought a replacement one and have seen flashing diode but not constant as it used to be and disc was trying to switch on by making noise but suddenly stopped. I plugged it in again and there is no even flashing diode and drive is not making noise, not trying to power on. I am not sure what happened. Maybe the replacement cable is the right voltage. I have 100-240V 0.7A max 12V power adapter but there is another power adapter on market such as 12v 180-240V 8A. Do you think it matters a lot? If possible I would like you to recovery the data from the hard drive and put it onto an SSD.

SSD not recognised in the bios

I have a Macbook Pro with touch bar & SSD, think its 2018 model but only had 4 weeks. Was using fine for work, had low battery, closed lid, had my lunch break then plugged in charger, made charger connecting noise but screen wouldn’t come on. Took to Apple, they tried new display, didn’t work. Next step is replacing logic board but been told data migration is 50/50 so I would like to know if you would be able to save my data, have all my photos ever on there as well as use it for work.

The following are enquiries for recovering the files from hard drives that are not working properly anymore. Thanks to Datlabs Data Recovery for the enquiries.

Recover My Photographs

My partner has lost photos from a hard drive and a mobile phone. I need them back! I am a wedding photographer based in Ashby de la Zouch and Nuneaton. Is there anyway to recover these photographs?

When I plug in my portable hard drive it does not appear on my computer unless I go view it on device manager. In device manager it says Unknown and Not Initialised. Cannot initialise it either, as it says Fatal Hardware Error. Currently unable to retrieve data from it, as there’s no partitions allocated to it. May be caused from dropping it.

I have just had my daughter accidentally delete our icloud account of photographs and they are unrecoverable via apple. I previously had an htc which also held many of her early pictures and I am keen to recover the pics from there. The phone is dead and has a broken screen which means that the phone guy I took it to previously was unable to access the Sim to retreieve the pics. Would you be able to tackle this? I am a wedding photographer based in Nuneaton and Ashby de la Zouch.

RAID Data Recovery in Manchester and London

I have a RAID server system running Windows Server OS. I probably have around 12TB of business data and file on there, mainly Microsoft Office documents. The RAID runs virtual machines (VM’s) and we are located in Manchester City Centre. The RAID is a RAID 5. i need a RAID data recovery clinic service in Manchester. If necessary I can get the RAID data recovery service completed at 68 Lombard Street in London.

https://www.dataclinic.co.uk/data-recovery-manchester/

I worked on trying to recover the data from the RAID with with a mac, and then one day brought it into work to use (windows) and it was very slow but still registering on the computer. The program would freeze a lot and it i had to use task manager to close it and then one time it froze the computer to bad, not even task manager worked so i had to manually shut down.

I’m getting a beeping noise from some of the hard drives in the RAID array and a Manchester raid data recovery company called data clinic tell me that some of the drives aren’t spinning. It’s been beeping and some of the RAID hard drives aren’t able to spin. It beeps and vibrates when plugged into computer, trying to spin but eventually gives out and goes quiet. I have taken the hard drives out of the server enclosure to eliminate that as the reason behind it’s faultiness, and bought an enclosure (sata 3) to try and connect to laptop but that didn’t work (still beeping and eventually stops when it is shut down). From what i know, the hard drives in the RAID array were never dropped. My partner thinks the 2 heads on two of the server’s RAID hard disks are jammed. What is the likelihood of recovering the data? I was told only 50%?

I have been recommended the RAID data recovery services of data clinic and can take my server to either the London or Manchester RAID recovery locations – see the maps above.

Spare Parts for hard drives

I’m looking for a donor drive to replace failed heads on a Seagate Barracuda ST2000DM001 P/N 9YN164-500 , S/N Z1E1F0JC and site code TK .FW version is CC48.
Apparently the heads are damaged so looking for these so we can replace and get data off an old drive.
I’m not entirely sure what is on the drive (probably pictures etc) so I don’t want to spend crazy money on a drive that will be stripped.
If this is not possible, what kind of ball park figure would it cost to do this work with you? I know you can’t give a final price but something rough would be sufficient.
