Faults, problems and failure symptoms of IBM / Hitachi Travelstar, Hitachi DK23, Toshiba, Fujitsu, Seagate & Western Digital laptop drivesLaptop and notebook computers make up an ever increasing percentage of the computer population. Regardless of the manufacturer of the laptop or notebook, its hard disk will nearly always be either an IBM Travelstar, Hitachi DK23, Fujitsu or Toshiba hard drive.
All laptop hard disks are prone to the same problems as their desktop counterparts, but because of their smaller size and greater density they are uniquely prone to a few others also. Typical data loss situations that arise with laptops are -
Impact damage eg. the laptop is dropped or sat on
Inaccessible drives and partitions
Virus attack
Hard disk component failure
Hard disk crashes
Fire, water, coffee and other liquid damage
Media surface contamination and damage
Accidental reformatting of partitions
Accidental deletion of data
Inaccessibility of data due to drive being protected by ATA password
The Data Clinic has extensive knowledge of all laptop drives and are able to recover data from them in almost all situations, regardless of whether the failures are logical, electrical or mechanical. By the very fact that laptop drives are used in mobile devices, they also suffer from bad sectors
