Tips or programs to recover hd?

December 9th, 2012, 21:12

Hello friends, I have some HD's to try to "recover" them

Following is the list:

I have 2 that are very slow to start that first part to enter setup takes a while naughty ...

I have one that does not recognize

And I have one that after formatting it erases everything myself ..

I know the Zero Fill, tried to pass these 2 that are very slow but the lock timeout of zero fill.

Already tried passing the hdd regenerator 0.02% and also get that pile of bad blocks ...

Some tips that might solve some friends of hd's?

Thank you!

Do not think any software will be successful in recovering data off the slow drives. Maybe there is a chance for the one that has been formatted, though it depends on how, with what, etc.

I think you are trying to repair the Hard disks , not recovering Data from them ???
You may get advise on recovering data from your drives.
But to repair drives , tips or programs wont help , only expensive tools and knowledge.

Ditto. Better find someone in your area who has the right gear and knows what to do. If the drives are not devastated (yet) maybe there's a solution.
