Any parts damage, aging or offset in hard disk components will lead to the hard disk cannot be recognized. It is usually showed as obvious abnormal sound, the motor cannot move, or all is OK but just cannot recognize the hard disk. In these cases, you need to open up the hard disk to recover data.

First of all, you need to know the normal working environment of a hard disk.

1.      The idea temperature for computer working is between 5 and 35 degree centigrade. And you’d better keep computer away from heat source.

2.      Keep its working environment clean. The long time accumulated dust in computer may cause short circuit and error reading of computer.
