Common Acer Data Loss Scenarios We Handle
Below are the top 25 Acer hard disk and SSD faults we recover from, with technical explanations and our professional recovery approach:
1. Accidental File Deletion
Files permanently removed or bypassing the Recycle Bin.
Recovery Method: Metadata scanning of unallocated clusters and directory table reconstruction.
2. Accidental Formatting
Drives mistakenly formatted using Windows Disk Management or third-party tools.
Recovery Method: Volume header reconstruction, deep file signature search.
3. File System Corruption
Caused by power failure or improper shutdown.
Recovery Method: Repair of NTFS/exFAT/FAT32 structures using forensic recovery tools.
4. Physical Damage
Drop or impact causing drive failure.
Recovery Method: Cleanroom disassembly and internal component replacement using donor parts.
5. Bad Sectors on the Disk
Gradual data loss or slow system performance.
Recovery Method: Sector-by-sector imaging with error recovery and read-retry algorithms.
6. Drive Not Recognised
Drive missing in BIOS or Windows.
Recovery Method: PCB diagnostics, interface repair, and firmware correction.
7. Read/Write Errors
Inconsistent access or file corruption during transfers.
Recovery Method: Adaptive imaging and bad sector isolation.
8. Virus or Malware Infection
Encryption or deletion of critical files.
Recovery Method: Malware signature analysis, file carving and recovery of unaffected partitions.
9. Interrupted File Transfers
Disruption due to power cut or hardware removal.
Recovery Method: File integrity analysis and raw recovery of partially transferred data.
10. Controller Failures
Faulty SSD or HDD controller chips.
Recovery Method: PCB replacement with microcode transfer, controller-specific diagnostics.
11. Water or Liquid Damage
Spills affecting internal drive electronics.
Recovery Method: Decontamination and component-level board repair.
12. Overheating
Device shutting down or data corruption due to thermal faults.
Recovery Method: Imaging and analysis post cooling; preventative analysis.
13. Wear and Tear
Long-term use causing NAND wear or mechanical fatigue.
Recovery Method: Clone creation prioritising weak sectors and logical recovery.
14. Unsupported File Systems
Drives formatted on incompatible platforms.
Recovery Method: Manual file system detection and cross-platform data parsing.
15. Electrical Damage
Power surges affecting internal components.
Recovery Method: Diagnostic tracing of damaged components and safe board replacement.
16. Partition Table Corruption
Drive shows as raw or unallocated.
Recovery Method: Partition table rebuild (GPT/MBR) and volume analysis.
17. Formatting in Unsupported Devices
Media reformatted in a smart TV or camera.
Recovery Method: Proprietary file system reconstruction and targeted media recovery.
18. Overwritten Data
New files saved over deleted ones.
Recovery Method: Partial recovery of overwritten data using slack space and signature tracing.
19. Bent or Broken Pins
Damaged SATA or USB connectors.
Recovery Method: Pin repair or port replacement under microscope-level tools.
20. Manufacturing Defects
Drives with inherent controller or NAND issues.
Recovery Method: Access via alternate firmware channels and diagnostic read routines.
21. SSD Controller Lock
Drive enters read-only or fails to respond.
Recovery Method: Firmware unlocking and direct NAND extraction.
22. BIOS Password or Drive Lock
Locked drives due to BIOS or firmware security.
Recovery Method: Password bypass (where lawful and feasible) or encrypted partition analysis.
23. System Crash During Update
Data loss after BIOS or Windows 11 update failure.
Recovery Method: Restore of system partition from raw image and file-level recovery.
24. Deleted Recovery Partition
OEM restore tools removed or corrupted.
Recovery Method: Recovery of Acer recovery partition and OS image files.
25. RAID Setup Malfunctions (Acer Workstations)
RAID 0/1 failure or rebuild issue.
Recovery Method: Manual array reconstruction, RAID parity analysis, and logical extraction.
