Experts announce that HDD is not really the best place to store some necessary info as there is a possibility that it would be lost forever. Lots of users choose some other kinds of data carriers as CDs and other magnetic devices specially to save really necessary information. Except mechanical breakdowns there are many different ways to lose the data saved on the HDD.

File systems

File system is a kind of software which helps computer to interact with HDD and perform needed actions with files. There are some sectors that are called partitions on the HDD. Even not quite well-skilled user can easily say that there are two types of file systems and knows their codes NTFS (NT File System) and FAT (File Allocation Table). Windows OS of the previous generation and DOS used FAT-16. Modern Windows operates with FAT-32. In case we match these two systems we will see that FAT-32 may operate with bigger amounts of info. That is hard to believe that people utilized FAT-16 and had disks not greater than 2 GB. Developers of Windows of the modern versions brought the opportunity for the users to operate with both FAT and NTFS systems.

The basic reason why new versions of Windows work with NTFS as a main system is that it has nicer level of safety. Another considerable benefit is that operator may establish individual access rights for any file. The most significant part of information for the OS is the boot record and disk partition table which are located in the initial sector of any disk. System won’t work appropriately and OS won’t boot in case there are some troubles with this data.

Data recovery

The main rule you should never depart from is not to overwrite the lost data if you want to perform partition recovery. Even when you have lost the entire partition you have the chance to restore it but don’t save any information. If you erased something which was saved in recycle bin and you understood that you want that data do not add any data on the HDD. Erased files are simply hidden but they are still present on the HDD. They will be completely deleted.

The most inconvenient case is when your disk has got only one partition. You have to find the other computer and connect your HDD to it then. Operation with the other computer has got lots of advantages.

Data recovery utilities

Lots of operators try to reinstall the operating system at once when they have any problems with HDD but it isn’t right. There are some software solutions which permit you to boot the computer with the control of the alternative operating system.

There are many freeware programs but commonly they are not so efficient as shareware recovery files. You may simply find the appropriate correspondence of prices and quality and utilize good software not overpaying for it.
