Recovery of removable hard disk
The recovery of a removable hard disk can be somewhat more complicated than in the case of a regular internal HDD. However, if you have some technical knowledge and tools, you can try the following steps for a possible solution to the problem:
1. Check the connection: Make sure that the USB cable or the other interface is correctly connected both to the drive itself and to the computer.
2. Use a second port/computer: If the first method does not work, try using a second port on your computer or check it on another computer.
3. Replacement of the power adapter (in the case of 3-5″ hard drives): The possible cause is damage to the power adapter that is supplied from the unit to the baskets with standard SATA connectors
4. Driver software: Update all related software to ensure full compatibility between the operating system and your device.
If after all these steps results are given, it is most likely that your disk is damaged and requires professional intervention. In this case, it is recommended to contact data recovery specialists who can conduct a deeper analysis of the problem and offer appropriate solutions.
It is important to remember that self-disassembly or repair of removable hard drives can lead to even greater damage or data loss. Therefore, it is always better to seek help from experienced professionals to minimize possible consequences.
