Data Recovery
Data recovery is the process of restoring data that has been lost, accidentally deleted, corrupted or made inaccessible for any reason.The data recovery process may vary, depending on the circumstances of the data loss, the data recovery software used to create the backup, and the backup target media.
There are many ways to store data: hard drives, removable disks, CDs or DVDs just to name a few. No matter how reliable these storage products might be, any mechanical or electronic device can fail to function normally. In addition, there are many non-failure-related causes of lost or inaccessible data, such as accidentally deleting files, formatting/repartitioning a disk, or a forgotten password. Sometimes disaster strikes and a storage device might physically be unusable, such as in the case of a fire, a spill or other damage. When normal methods for accessing data fail, data recovery is the process we use to regain safe, reliable access to that data.
