Dealing With Hard Disk Controller Failure

Integrated into a disk drive, a disk controller is a circuit, which is built onto the motherboard. It enables the CPU to communicate with the hard disk. At times, when the hard disk controller fails, you may not be able to access the saved data and encounter a few error messages. This may result in data loss. In such cases, a valid data backup can provide you with great support to restore your data. But, if you have not maintained any backup or the backup fails to restore the data, then the need of Data Recovery arises.

For instance – while formatting the hard drive during re-installation of the operating system, you encounter any one of the following error messages:

01H which describes ‘Bad Command’
04H which describes ‘Request Sector Not found’
20H which describes ‘Controller Has Failed’
FFH which describes ‘Sense Operation Failed’
80H which describes ‘Drive Failed to Respond’
10H which describes ‘Bad EEC on Disk Read’
CCH which describes ‘Write Fault’

When you encounter any one of the above error message, the data stored in your hard drive becomes inaccessible

Cause:
The main cause of the above error messages are:
Hard drive controller failure.
Hardware failure.

Resolution:
To resolve these issues, try to perform a clean re-install of the operating system. When you re-install the operating system, if the process continues without any error then you can use a data recovery software to recover data from the formatted hard drive.

However, if the problem persists, then you need to seek help from a reputed Data Recovery company. These companies provide professional Hard Drive Recovery Services to recover your lost data from physically damaged hard drive.
