Common Seagate Drive Issues and Our Recovery Process
Seagate drives can fail due to various reasons, and we’ve seen them all. Common Seagate hard drive issues we specialise in include:
- Drive not detected or not recognised by Windows or Mac computers.
- Mechanical issues like clicking, ticking or grinding noises (often caused by head crashes or platter damage from drops). This requires expert clicking drive data recovery.
- File system or partition corruption leading to missing folders or “RAW” drives, affecting your ability to perform a successful Seagate file recovery.
- Bad sectors and read errors causing slow performance or crashes.
- Firmware faults (e.g., drive reporting 0MB capacity or BSY state due to bugs like the infamous Seagate 0LBA issue).
- Electronic failures such as burnt PCB from power surges or faulty USB bridge boards.
- Physical damage from accidents – drops, shocks, floods, or fire. For external hard drive data recovery, physical damage is a frequent cause.
Our Expert Seagate Data Recovery Process
Our Seagate hard drive data recovery process is designed to handle all the above failures safely and effectively.
Free Assessment & Quote
First, we start with a free data recovery quote and assessment. You can bring your faulty Seagate drive to any of our labs or post it to us. Our engineers will thoroughly diagnose the drive within 1–2 business days (or within hours for urgent cases) and provide you with a written quote and a timeline. We’ll explain the problem, the chances of success, and outline options – whether a standard service or an emergency priority job if you need the data back ASAP. If you proceed with the quote, we’ll get started right away; if not, we’ll return your device with no questions asked and no fees.
