What causes failure in even the most durable hard drives?
The hard drives built over the last five years are incredibly sturdy. They seldom incur mechanical failures unless subjected to severe abuse such as being dropped or overheated. As most PCs are temperature monitored, seldom does a hard drive control board overheat. So why then do these tough new hard drives breakdown? Actually, they don’t; modern hard drives are built to an almost unbelievable standard of toughness. Many digital storage devices are now solid-state with no moving parts, making it almost impossible for them to fail. Still, we ask why do they stop working and why do we end up staring at a bright blue Windows error screen?
These hard drive failures are the result of what is called a logic crash. To put this as simply as possible, the numbers used to create actions, text and images inside your desktop or laptop computer no longer add up. The files needed to start up your computer have been corrupted by an interrupted start up, a virus or any number of causes. And now all of your computer records are locked away inside a PC that refuses to load Windows (or Linux, Or Mac OS).
