In most data recovery cases, there is a high chance of recovery for all device failures immediately following the media failure. The main variable which brings recovery success rates down is human intervention. Home users as well as inexperienced IT professionals who attempt to experiment on the media unknowingly reduce the chance of recovery and in many occurrence's end up ruining the user’s chances of any successful recovery.

• Please refrain from running any software utilities such as Norton. These utilities more often than not actually worsen your chance to recover your data.
• Keep the power turned off immediately following any signs of data loss, mechanical malfunction. By turning your machine on and off, you may actually be causing more damage to your hard disk/mechanical components.
• Please do not allow yourself or anyone else, IT staff included, from experimenting with your media.
• Do not attempt to power your computer on and off hoping your media will just work and turn back on. This may cause addition irreversible damage to your media.
