Conclusion

The days roundup

 

The day concluded with a talk about the old Deskstar IBM hard drives, aka "deathstar" for their bad reliability rate. It turns out that the cause of this was due to the drive head crashing into the drive platters, physically damaging the hard drive.

 

Disklabs are also able to recover data from Sim Cards, Flash Media and almost any other data storing device, so it was interesting to see the methods and equipment used to retrieve this information.

 

Overall, the tour was a great insight to the workings of a data recovery company. The tour was a great follow up to the Data Recovery guide, and gave a good sense as to what actually happens when things go wrong!
