As a photographer you are all experts, times have changed too, earlier camera roll was used to wash and dry photos, but now there are SD cards, SDXC and CF cards. Technology will continue to change, the advantages and disadvantages of technology are terrible like the side effects of medical tablets, today we know the disadvantages of technology, how does data corruption happen, how does hard disk fail forever? Let’s discuss SD card, hard disk. You copy and paste the data into the pen drive, even if the file size matches the system, the data file does not open, some files are missing, the wedding shoot is a party function, but it is an important event, 1 video 1 photo, which is an important event of the whole event. Part is if the file is corrupt, the file is there but not opened, the card is damaged, the card is formatted, the data is overwritten, the data cannot be recovered, the hard disk is damaged, and you may face many problems. Business how do you approach clients when you try hard but don’t provide complete data? How to return data? There may be such occasions.

Such cases also have a negative effect on your business, the customer who has been harmed, he is marketing you negatively, your name is getting damaged in the market, how come the problem is that the customer does not receive any payment, for which the customer has paid, I only have my Let’s see the photo. Your mindset is different and the customer is different. The help of a photographer is sought to make the wedding memorable, and if you don’t get it, your business is of no use, again, not for the wedding photos.

We have experienced many such cases when photographers with abhi gadgets team come across data recovery problems, realizing that data is lost, what should be done next?

The hard disk is lying down so it does not show in the computer, we know and we keep trying again and again to connect. This causes the hard disk to fail completely. Data recovery chances decrease, resulting in data recovery cost also increases. Why is this so? Due to lack of awareness, the photographer never thinks about it.

Abhi Gadgets has tried to provide basic knowledge through this blog with this in mind.

Types of Data Loss– As given below the file appears but does not open, the file size is also there.

Can’t open, we don’t support this file format

The OK property details are shown in the image below, but the corrupted file is empty.

In these cases JPEG and Video files are showing, not opening, showing no file format support.

What causes this problem – There are many reasons for file corruption, some of them are. When copying from 1 drive to another drive, the file may be corrupted due to poor card quality. Viruses and ransomware cause file damage and corruption, In such a case, the chances of file repair are good. Depending on file diagnosis, by understands why the file is not recovered. If it is the original drive, it is possible to recover the file from it, but if the drive is over right, it is difficult.

Low quality memory card –

Many people keep cards folded out of paper in their pocket, avoid this because the card is

Fragile and the chance of data recovery is low if damaged

Eject USB drive / SD Pen drive – We always do this directly remove the pen drive hard disks, due to this habit we see data corruption from the same device after a few days, maybe you have not experienced this but there is a chance of device corruption due to…

Hard disk disconnecting usb from power state head palttor can get stuck,

If you turn on the power again, the head palter may get scratched!! SD card pen drives have cell charges, if data is ejected from read and write, the cell life down

So this basic instruction from Abhi Gadgets, given below.

Right click on the SD card Pen drive and select Eject

If it’s a Hard Disk, right click on the date and time on the right and eject the device.

Avoid format SD card

Most photographers format the SD card to shoot new events, it doesn’t flow. How long has the card been formatted? Can you get previous data backup or not? And if the data is copied, it doesn’t matter if the file is visible or not, the card is formatted in a hurry and the event is shot, in this we can delete the card without formatting, the photo can be deleted from the camera, select all from the computer desktop without formatting. Can be deleted by And if there is any problem, data can be recovered from the card, and it helps to solve

External HDD

Do you use the HDD shown in the image?

 WD my Passport 2 TB and 4 TB, basic economy HDD launched by WD in 2018-19 with 2 TB storage data at Rs.5000, is a very common hard disk, WD has noticed that these hard disks have the most problems, data Zero (disappearance of data). Any data recovery software you try will not recover the data.

Using low quality material has very low stability, it can lead to logical problems, if you don’t follow basic instructions on how hard disks are used, and your data will be lost forever.

If something goes wrong with this model, no matter how expert you are, don’t experiment, don’t attempt data recovery using normal software, contact a data recovery expert and follow the instructions.

Data zero case means your data is not visible anymore, hard disk is on, it is visible in system, it is not anymore, empty the hard disk.

Data goes to zero without you realizing it, that’s the problem with manufacturing technology.

I won’t go deep yet, in case of solution 1 you contact an expert, and don’t do any experiment yourself, keeping the HDD as it is makes your data recovery cost work. And benefits to save data.
