Virus Damaged Hard Drives

Even computers with virus protection can occasionally be taken down by a malicious bug or Trojan designed to compromise security while destroying valuable information. Fortunately, ESS Data Recovery is able to help in any virus damage situation.

If your computer has been damaged by a virus, follow these steps to ensure a successful recovery of your data:

  • Turn your drive off at the first sign of virus damage. Viruses can only cause damage on a running drive, so logically the best course of action is to shut down your computer and get your drive to a data recovery expert.
  • Call ESS Data Recovery. We will be able to inform you of pricing, likelihood of recovery and can answer your questions. Try to completely describe any symptoms you noticed and have a list of critical files ready. Knowing about error screens, hard drive noises, and the types of files affected can be invaluable to a data recovery effort. The more information we have, the easier it will be for us to recover your files.
  • Remove your drive carefully. Your drive is still susceptible to physical and electronic damage. Ground yourself before touching the drive and be careful not touch the electronic PCB board. Also, be careful not to subject the drive to physical shock and put it in a static free bag before shipping it. Please follow the shipping instructions we send once your case is set up with us.

Virus damage has the potential to be very frustrating, but ESS Data Recovery will retrieve your files quickly, successfully and affordably. Call today for more information.
