A client contacted Belfast Data Recovery after their Corsair Vengeance PC failed to boot, leaving their data inaccessible. The reported issues included:
- Frequent system freezing and crashes before complete failure.
- Bad sectors on the hard drive, making file access slow or impossible.
- Read/write heads showing signs of failure, leading to clicking noises.
- The PC would not boot, displaying errors related to drive failure.
- No backup was available, making data recovery essential.
Since bad sectors and failing read/write heads indicate mechanical degradation, a cleanroom recovery approach was required.

Diagnosis & Recovery Process
Upon receiving the Corsair Vengeance PC hard drive, our engineers conducted a detailed forensic assessment. The key findings included:
- Read/write heads were degraded and failing, leading to data read errors.
- Numerous bad sectors across the drive, preventing normal file access.
- The drive was on the verge of mechanical failure, meaning immediate recovery was necessary.
To successfully recover the client’s lost files and system data, we implemented a multi-step forensic hard drive recovery strategy:
Step 1: Cleanroom Repair & Drive Stabilization
- Opened the hard drive in a cleanroom.
- Replaced the damaged read/write heads with donor parts.
- Realigned the platters and heads to allow stable data extraction.
Step 2: Drive Cloning & Data Preservation
- Used DeepSpar Disk Imager to create a sector-by-sector forensic clone of the failing drive.
- Applied adaptive read techniques to recover as much data as possible from bad sectors.
Step 3: File System Repair & Data Extraction
- Repaired damaged NTFS file system structures to restore missing directories.
- Extracted and validated all important system and personal files.
Step 4: Secure Data Transfer & Future Protection
- Conducted final validation checks to confirm all recovered files were intact.
- Successfully transferred the restored data to a secure external SSD, formatted for client use.
- Provided guidance on setting up automated backups to prevent future data loss.
