WHAT IS LOGICAL FAILURE OF HARD DRIVE?

A logical failure in a hard drive refers to an issue with the data stored on the drive, rather than with the hardware itself. This can manifest in a variety of ways, including file corruption, incorrect permissions, or software conflicts. When a logical failure occurs, data may become inaccessible or the drive may fail to boot properly. Common causes of logical failures include malware infections, software updates and crashes, and improper shutdowns. It is possible to resolve some logical failures with data recovery software, but more complex issues may require the services of a professional data recovery specialist.

Logical damage refers to non-physical failure, in other words when the damage occurs in hard drive’s file structure or software rather than physical damage to hard drive. In this situation computer BIOS can see the hard drive, but it cannot access the data on it and may not be able to mount the partition or Windows may simply report that no drive is present. In most extreme cases of logical failure, you can see hard drive spinning fine but it is not even recognized by the computer BIOS.

THE MOST COMMON CAUSES FOR LOGICAL HARD DRIVE FAILURES ARE:

Almost all logical damage can be recovered without the need of opening the hard drive. Disappearing data, disk errors and a sluggish system are all signs of impending logical hard drive failure. When you start to experience these symptoms, the best thing to do is to backup your data if you are not done before. If you don’t have data backup and suffering from a logical problem of the hard drive, then you can contact us. Almost all logical problem can be recovered without the need to open the hard drive.

MASTER BOOT RECORD FAILURE :

MBR is located at the first sector of the hard disc drive. If MBR becomes inaccessible, it will give the operating system incorrect booting instructions. As a result, a hard drive will not boot

UNINTENDED DATA DELETION:

Deletion, formatting or reformatting partitions and incorrect partitioning of hard drive can occur due to system or human errors leading to file structure corruption and logical failure of hard disk

OPERATING SYSTEM FAILURE:

Sometimes, you may encounter errors in the Operating System or registry because of dreadful viruses, malicious programs, corrupt system files, etc. leads to logical failure.

INCORRECT SYSTEM SHUTDOWN:

Improper termination of system either intentionally or accidentally can damage the file structure of the hard drive or make it inaccessible
