Hitachi Deskstar 7K2000, 7K3000 and 5K3000 data recovery
3.5-inch SATA desktop / nas drives made 2009–2012. Recovered in our central London clean-room lab with PC-3000, for customers anywhere in the UK.
Faults we see on the Hitachi Deskstar 7K2000, 7K3000 and 5K3000
Reliable drives that were popular in early NAS and home servers. Faults we see are usually head wear after many years of running.
How we recover it
We use PC-3000 systems from ACE Lab, the professional standard for data recovery labs. PC-3000 lets us repair a drive’s firmware through its service area, read damaged drives one head at a time, and copy weak drives slowly and safely without stressing them. Physical repairs such as replacing read/write heads are done in our clean room in central London, so the drive never leaves our lab.
