When picking a storage device for a laptop or PC do you go for:
- 🏎 speed,
- 🚚 capacity,
- 🦾 vibration knock resistance,
- 🔒 security
- 🪐 longevity
- 💰 price
or recoverability 😎
One of the main problems with data storage is not that they can fail or be damaged - it is that the backup is not done, fails or a cloud backup goes awol.
As the anticipated increase in SSD coming into the lab plays out there are some interesting findings.
SSD coming in for recovery
- 👉 Nearly Full
- 👉 Very Degraded - Inaccessible
- 👉 Many have backups
- 👉 Few have had Firmware Updates
Often solutions lag months behind release of a revision.
Very few data recovery labs have the experience or resources to solve SSD Data Recovery problems.
