Logical Level Recovery - Simple to Complex Data Loss Situations
Common data loss issues include accidental file and folder deletion, drive formatting, and file corruption. While DIY software can recover data in many instances, some situations may be too complex for data recovery software. For these complex cases, our professional services offer expert assistance to restore your data from hard disks.
Accidental Deletion
Accidental deletions, whether from a mistaken SHIFT+DEL or clearing the Recycle Bin, are common occurrences. At Stellar, our experts employ proprietary data recovery software and specialized techniques developed over time. For complex data loss situations, trust our professionals to restore your hard disk data.
Virus Infection
Viruses can severely damage data integrity by corrupting or deleting files. If your HDD data, files, or folders are affected by a virus, we can help recover them. Using advanced tools and file repair techniques, we retrieve data from hard disks and external drives impacted by malware. Our experts ensure your files and folders are restored to optimal condition.
Data loss Due to Drive Formatting
Formatting a hard drive partition is a common cause of data loss, especially when drives become slow or are impacted by malware. Often, users format the drive without backing up their data. Our hard drive data recovery experts are here to help restore your data in these situations.
Data Recovery From not detected hard drives
Restore Data From Physically Damaged Hard Drives
Hard drives can become undetectable due to physical damage, such as shocks from mishandling, water spills on laptops, flood damage, or fire. Often, these issues involve misalignment of the drive's read/write heads, or scratches on platters. Our expertise in recovering data from even the most complex physical damage situations is unmatched.
Burnt Hard Drives
Exposure to fire can severely damage a hard drive's external casing, making data recovery challenging. However, if the platter remains intact, recovery is still possible. Stellar's data recovery experts can restore data from heavily burned drives and minimize data loss, even in the most extreme situations.
Water-Damaged HDDs
Flood damage or accidental water spills on laptops are common causes of hard drive data loss. When an HDD comes into contact with water, it can lead to corrosion and short circuits, complicating data recovery. Our experts use advanced drying and recovery techniques to salvage data from water-damaged drives
Read-Write Head Assembly Issue
A head crash occurs when the read/write head contacts the platter surface, causing severe scratches and damage that make data recovery difficult. Since platters contain vital data, this issue is especially challenging. Stellar's extensive library of donor parts for all major hard drive models enables us to achieve the industry's best success rate in data recovery.

FAQs
An HDD (hard disk drive) is a common storage device used in computers to save and retrieve data. It uses spinning disks to store information, making it affordable and offering a large storage capacity.
- Desktop HDDs: Larger drives are used in desktop computers with lots of storage.
- Laptop HDDs: smaller drives for laptops, offering a good balance of size and capacity.
- Enterprise HDDs: high-performance drives for servers and data centers, built to last.
- External HDDs: portable drives you can use for extra storage or backups.
- Hybrid HDDs (SSHDs): a mix of HDD and SSD technology for better speed.
HDDs use spinning disks to store data, making them slower but cheaper with more storage. SSDs, on the other hand, use flash memory with no moving parts, making them faster, quieter, and more durable, but they cost more per gigabyte.
If you need to recover data from a hard drive, it's best to go to a professional. Stellar Data Recovery Centers are experts in getting data back from all types of drives, including HDDs and SSDs. They have the tools and knowledge to help you recover your lost data safely and quickly. Visit a Stellar Data Recovery Center near you for help.
Data recovery cost varies. It depends on various factors, such as the complexity of the situation, the capacity of the hard drive, etc. However, in case of physical damage to the hard drive, the procedure is more complex. Read more about the hard drive data recovery cost.

Jan 02, 2026 I am truly overwhelmed with happiness and gratitude. My hard disk was completely corrupted and making flickering sounds, and I was convinced that all my data was permanently lost with no chance of recovery. I had almost given up hope. However, the team at Stellar exceeded all my expectations by successfully recovering all the data I needed. I honestly have no words to express how relieved and happy I feel right now. I understand that data recovery is a costly process, and while the price was high, the cost was never a concern for me because my data was extremely important. What truly mattered was getting my data back, and Stellar delivered exactly that. Their team communicated very professionally throughout the process. I was prepared to wait and had given them sufficient time for recovery, but they completed the work much faster than expected, in a very smooth and comfortable manner. Thank you, Stellar, for your excellent service and support. I am extremely satisfied and truly grateful.

Dec 20, 2025 I had a hard disk that was completely inaccessible, and I was unable to retrieve any data on my own. I chose Stellar Data Recovery, and despite the process taking around 1–2 weeks, the entire pickup and delivery was handled smoothly from my home, which was very convenient. The service is quite expensive, but the data stored on the hard disk was extremely important to me, so it was worth the cost. I received 100% data recovery without any issues, and the hard disk data was restored successfully. Overall, a reliable and professional service when your data truly matters.

During this difficult time, Mr. Narasimha, who handled the pickup and drop of my HDDs, truly stood by me. He supported me throughout, fought for my case, and made every possible effort to help recover the data from the second corrupted HDD. His dedication and humane approach meant a lot to me. I would also like to thank the Stellar team for their efforts and support in recovering my important data. I am truly grateful for the assistance I received. Highly Recommended!
