Description
Is A Head Crash Bad?

When it comes to your hard drive a head crash is a very serious matter and if you think you my have had one cease using the drive immediately if the drive contains valuable data and consult a data recovery expert.

The disk is a standard spin speed drive (7200 rpm) are spinning at a staggering 120kph or thereabouts and 10 and 15,000 spin speed disks travel even faster. A head crash is when the read write heads actually come into contact with the rotating platter and damaged the very sensitive magnetised surface.

Continued use of a drive with head crash damage can render a drive totally unrecoverable so don't take any risks if you suspect this to be the case with your drive. If your data has not been backed up it is far better to be safe than sorry having lost all your data.
