Can anyone interpret the above results? How to recover my data from the sick hard drive? I will very much appreciate your help.Ī screen shot was taken and the MHDD display showed that it is stored on. It performs fast (up to 20 Gb in 6 minutes) and accurate diagnostics of all the surface and heads of the HDD irrespective of the data located on it.
MHDD is an utility for fast and informative low-level drive diagnostics. I downloaded the following freeware and as instructed booted my computer having only one sick drive using the MHDD4.6 CD: The HP Smart test result: Failed Self test status value 4 (completed the test but the failed element unknown). My Western Digital hard disk (originally used as C drive) does NOT boot any more on my original HP computer having Windows Vista operating system (32-bit). In other words, my sick hard disk is visible but its files/folders are not visible.
When I plug this failed/faulty hard disk as a secondary drive in my another computer, it is recognized/detected as a D: drive but the computer cannot display any files and folders from this drive D. Sick Hard Disk: Western Digital model WD5000KS (500GB) SATA When the F2 was pressed, the system hanged windows vista did not load. All of a sudden, my computer rebooted itself and stopped at the initial screen showing the warning message that the hard disk failure is imminent and that I should back up my data.
