It’s a scary fact that hard drives – the devices that store your programs, operating system, and personal data – are mechanical devices that do not last forever. While it’s possible that they may last over ten to twenty years, the typical manufacturer’s warranty only lasts for three years – and the average lifespan we see is about five years (or under 25,000 power-on hours).
Even worse, dropping your computer or spilling liquid on it can also damage drives. If you experience a lot of unexpected slowdown, you may be experiencing the beginnings of hard drive failure. Also be on the lookout for grinding or loud, repetitive clicking noises from your computer. If you catch it quickly enough, we may be able to help you recover your data. And in any case, we can replace your drive and get you back up and running again.
