It will recover the data on the external hard drive
Restoring data on an external hard drive can be a difficult task, but there are several methods that you can try.
1. Check the connection: Make sure your external hard drive is properly connected to the computer or other device. Use different USB ports or cables to check for possible connection problems.
2. Use a different computer/port: If your device is still not recognized after checking the first step, try using it on a different computer and/or through a different USB port.
3. Recover data with software: There are many specialized programs for data recovery (Recovery software), such as EaseUS Data Recovery Wizard or Recuva from Piriform.
– Run one of these programs and follow the instructions to scan your external hard drive.
– When the program finishes scanning, it should display a list of found files.
– Select the necessary files to save and specify a new storage location (not on the same damaged HDD).
4. Seek help from professionals:
If the previous methods did not help, and your data is very valuable to you, it is better to contact hard disk repair professionals or specialized data recovery companies. They can use more sophisticated technologies and tools to try to extract information from a damaged device.
It is important to note that the success of these steps may depend on the degree of damage to your hard drive. If the problem is physical (for example, a broken part), the software will most likely be useless.
