Hard Drive Failure

Rumours are starting to trickle through the data recovery industry that the debacle of the Seagate 7200.11 problem continues and that after bowing to consumer pressure (and in our opinion rightly so), Seagate may have rescinded its free data recovery offer.

How true this rumour is remains to be seen but if it is true it signifies yet another u-turn by this corporate giant, and not in the consumers favour. To many that have suffered from data loss and business downtime, or who had to go to the expense of paying for a service before the amnesty was announced the damage to Seagate’s reputation may have already been done.

Perhaps Seagate feels that damage limitation has been successful and it has contained the very vocal uprising but latecomers to the party will have to fend for themselves because if their recovery was urgent, they would have lodged a recovery request by now.

The problem with any drive failure generally is that although the manufacturer will (sometimes under duress) replace a failed drive, almost all will not holds their hands up to data loss claims as this could involve millions. Perhaps the deluge of recovery request was simply too great for the company to swallow.

Whether or not this rumour has any substance remains to be seen but if so check with your local data recovery company as they may be able to help.
