Mistakes Happen!!!!!
Here are some of the home user cases that we see on a daily bases
Hard Drive Brand: Lenovo capacity: 80
Model Number: HTS541080G9SA00
Disk Interface: SATA
events: I was using an application called EZ Gig II to clone my old hard
drive to a new hard drive of the same capacity, however something went wrong
and it looks like the application took the new hard drive to be the source
drive and wiped out all of the files on the boot drive that I was trying to
clone.
Hard Drive Brand: Western Digital capacity: 200
Model Number: WD2000JB
warranty: No, the device is not under warranty.
Disk Interface: EIDE
events: Plugged it into a new external enclosure, and it didn\'t get
recognized. I took it out and put it back into the old enclosure, and when
I turned it on, it started clicking. I took it out and noticed that one of
the chips was burnt. Replaced the board twice (and transplanting one chip
from the original board; also tried just plugging the board in), both failed
(still kept making clicking noise). I suspect that I still have the wrong
board, or that transplanted chip was damaged.
This is a data disk. It has no operating system on it, but the data was
written by Windows 2000 and 98. Aiming to get a full disk clone if
possible.
Hard Drive Brand: Maxtor capacity: 250GB
Model Number: 6B250S0
warranty: No, the device is not under warranty.
Disk Interface: SATA
events: Had two of these in a system.. One failed Took it apart and tried to
migrate the platters to the working drive. (internet tutorial) Did not work.
The bios sees there is a drive.. but the heads were messed up in the
transfer process. only has about 9gb of info can you read from the degree of
messed up
