Seagate Exos 7E8 Hard Drive Evaluation Process
Upon receiving the hard drive, our data recovery experts evaluated it. The Seagate Exos 7E8 Enterprise Level Hard Drive has six platters, and we carefully inspected each one.
After our evaluation, we determined that the issue was a stuck motor. The drop had damaged the motor, preventing the hard drive from functioning correctly.
We informed the client of our findings and provided a quote for the data recovery service. The client agreed to our terms and gave us the go-ahead to recover his Seagate hard drive.
Recovering Data from Exos 7E8 HardDrive
Our team of experts carefully dismantled the hard drive in a cleanroom environment to prevent further damage. We needed to replace the damaged motor to get the hard drive running again. As an enterprise-level hard drive, motor replacement requires specialized equipment and expertise. Our team had extensive experience handling these hard drives, and we were confident we could recover the data successfully.
With a large number of donor parts in stock, we quickly found a compatible motor for the Seagate Exos 7E8 hard drive. Our technicians carefully installed and tested the new motor to ensure it was functioning correctly.
Once the hard drive was operational, we used advanced data recovery software and methods to extract the client’s important business files.
Even if the damaged part was replaced, a dropped hard drive should not be used again. The hard drive may still have underlying issues that can cause data loss or corruption. Therefore, we transfer the recovered data to a new hard drive for our clients.
After completing the data recovery process, we conducted a remote file verification session with the client. During this session, our support team guided the client through checking and confirming that his important business files were recovered successfully. The client was overjoyed to see that his files were intact and accessible.
