What to do if you drop a hard drive....First, DO NOT do any of the following. You risk taking a potentially recoverable hard drive and rendering it permanently unrecoverable:
A dropped hard drive is by definition a physical hard drive failure. The only way to assure the highest probability of recovery is to stop using the hard drive and have a qualified Data Recovery Engineer disassemble your hard drive in a cleanroom, then perform recovery. No software utilities exist which can effectively recover data from a drive that sustained physical damage. If you dropped your hard drive or suspect your hard drive has been dropped, stop using it immediately. With over a decade of physical hard drive recovery experience, Hard Drive 911 Data Recovery is your first choice for physical data recovery.

Great Experience and Extemely Satisfied; Highly Recommended! I have never experienced data loss before, but it is a terrible situation. As I am sure is often the case, the data that is lost includes "priceless" files such as pictures/movies of family members who have since passed away or once-in-a-lifetime-vacations. Both my laptop and my external HD failed recently. I had a mild freakout session as I realized a good part of 9 years of my life were on those two devices. I thought I had lost files that I would never be able to replace. Luckily I found HD911 and their hard work was able to recover all of my data (and more). After trying Geek Squad and software from Kroll OnTrack, as well as countless Internet forums, I realized I needed professional help to recover my data. I called around and compared prices and services from a number of data recovery firms. After speaking with Sheila, I was confident that HD911 would be the right company to work with. She told me that highly experienced technicians would work on my drives and be able to recover most, if not all, of what I was looking for in just a day or two. Their processes were effective and efficient and she clearly walked me through the entire recovery process. After just a day, I was provided with a list of recoverable data on both drives. It included the data I wanted back plus other data that I did not think I had anymore and wanted back as well. From there, I worked with Sheila who was extremely responsive, professional and knowledgeable. HD911 was even able to take care of my order over the 4th of July weekend and ship me back my drives. In total, it took about 6 days to complete my recovery which included 3 days of shipping and 1 national holiday. The price was also extremely reasonable (and much cheaper than larger competitors). If you do not know, data recovery is a highly technical process and can get very pricey. I not only got all of my data back, but I got a great price as well! I hope I never have a data loss situation again, but I know if I do, HD911 will be the first call I make. Thanks again Sheila and HD911! I cannot tell you how much your work means to me.
