Required Tools and equipment for hdd data recovery

[Josh256]

Hello everyone

I have been recovering data from iPhones, macBooks and mobile phones that the motherboard is damaged and not working anymore and requires microsoldering chip reballing and replacing...etc recently i have been looking into doing hard disk data recovery too, and i have been searching and looking but i have no idea what are the necessary equipment ( software and hardware) that i need to start. i have laminar flow bench that i used to use for phone screen refurbishment to keep all the dust and particles out. i have been reading about PC-3000 there is a portable one and there is a normal one and i would appreciate if someone tells me which one is better as i don't do any data recovery out of our lab.

also if anyone can drop a link for head combs for head swap for almost all models that would be appreciated.

any help and information would be highly appreciated as that would save me so much time searching.
Thanks

I don't do HDD recoveries so can't help you there, but perhaps this is nice to watch: https://youtu.be/UKQZ7Lse-N8

Make sure you put in place a closed in clean place if cannot make a clean room -- when you are ready to purchase and install the recovery hardware and software.

Difficult to answer, because we don't know if dust settles from the top on the device.
Typically the device is covered by chamber walls, thus preventing any outter dust settling.
For phones it is probably ok, as normal dust isn't that big of a deal.
For hard drive disks, it is an issue.

Answer is NO ,
They are primarily for mobile phone technicians who like a little cleaner environment ,Like for pasting screen guard etc ,Avoid this please
