Hello I have ever heard of data recovery tools PC3000, SALVATION DATA, Athol, HRT I heard of tools that read directly on the disc even though it is still very scratchy if you can recover data even partially would be good start misogyny is a myth or truth?

Maybe using automated translation.
Probably he/she wanted to know if PC3000 HRT Atola and SD can actually help recovering data from badly physically damaged media....

So was wondering if there is a device that directly read disks

NO. or better not exactly what you wish to do. Every drive / brand / system has his own encoding and servo structure, almost useless to reverse engineer if not impossible without proprietary info (that is trade secret, obviously).

Only some attempt in direct decoding was done in the past, and, moreover, NO HEAD CAN SURVIVE READING PSYSICALLY DAMAGED PLATTER SURFACE, and you cannot read what's no longer on the surface itself.

Probably at laboratory level something practical and - at certain level - working, can exist. But not in commerce.

All the tools mentioned by the OP are mainly intended for diagnostic purpose and eventual repair at firmware / logic level.

And what is your opinion about GUZIK? no other similar tools, ask why hesitate laboratories that do not want to mention that they have tools to read up to 4 plates and recovering all separate from the issue of harddisk in my opinion pure marketing misleading to say that such ferraments cost over 100,000 USD I think the market for data recovery requires much knowledge and hard work

GUZIK maybe yes. But this tool willnot only read data with CONF per sector 512 Byte, it will read everything including SA, rubbish byte and everything. and the next step is you need to manually recontruction ALL data become usefull. this method of Data recovery was not recommended becaused it is too hard, waste time, waste energy. and will cost a lot in DR

The difference between science fiction and fables :

science fiction, one day, sooner or later, will become reality. A fable, never.

Decide yourself. :mrgreen:


P.S. another thing (oh, how real it is!!) : money is in mouth of too many people and in pockets of very few... the rest is "marketing".

All opinions are welcome, much appreciate the work of DR, my intention with this post was just clarifying many people of what is fantasy or reality and the real work of a professional DR is in laboratories and on their knowledge and not on lies told by companies to get more U.S. dollars to customers compare the work of DR as an organ transplant often lost data worth a lifetime of work or personal memories that can be lost forever, thanks to everyone for their opinions and point of view is always good to learn underwater naturalist dive more and more
