Data Recovery - Things to avoid when you want to recovery a file

A file is definitely deleted only when the physical part of the disk was reassigned to the registration of other data. This is why, after an accidental erasure of a file, you must not:

* Add files, try the slightest movement of file or other manipulations that may use clusters formerly allocated to your deceased roster;
* Installing software recovery after deletion of data. To do so, they must be put in place before a disaster happening, since their installation might make your data permanently unrecoverable (unless they were recorded on a hard disk system-independent, on a second partition, a disc external drive or removable media);
* Defragment your hard drive after the loss of a file. While many of you saw this feature of Windows a chance to remedy the erosion of performances, please keep in mind that this program was changing the location of different blocks (principle), dramatically increasing the chances of erasing finally lost a file;
* Wait too long before attempting a recovery because more minutes pass, the more likely is great to see the allocation of units, previously devoted to your file, to be reallocated to another cause.

Finally, if possible, try to work on a different partition from that used by the system, which allows you to isolate the blocks to recover perpetual changes that take place on the unit where your system is' exploitation.

Data loss - The most frequent causes.

Data loss, the main causes! I recently read an article in which the author listed the main causes of data loss.
Usualy, here are the worst 'enemies' of the hard disk, which are responsible for most cases of data loss: rising tension electrical outage, fall or move on the central processing unit (PC, Mac or laptop) , delete data, whether intentional or accidental, sudden changes in temperature, dust, humidity, obsolescence or failure of the hard drive.
