I would like to have a brilliant hard disk repair software. I am tired with HDDs that stop functioning?

The best thing to do with hard drives is prevent problems from occurring, rather than try to recover from problems after they occur.  You may want to look at Spinrite.

Yes, there are a number of programs that will wipe your hard drive and let you start afresh. Have a look on www.tucows.com

Try this -\n\nOpen control panel, then system, then hardware, then device manager, then disk drives, double click on your bad drive and click troubleshoot.\n\nGood Luck

how many have you made?  Most drives will eventually wear out and stop working.  Maybe your drive isn't working anymore, or maybe its not connected right, or maybe you just need to reinstall the drivers.

if you don't want replace this hard drive, the best bet is - do a thorough disk check on it. this will mark all bad sectors and will take them out of use.\nafter you start that disk check you will be requested to reboot the system, do so and let it run.

Yes, this is very easy. Get your external HD kit and it should have instructions for you. It will guide you through he process.

call any reputable computer repair shop in your area.  If they don't do it on-site, they should be able to refer you to someone who does.  \n\nFYI: do NOT use anyone who will charge you for their services if no data is recovered.  In other words, no results/data= no $$

ah newbies :-)\n\nif you dont have anything valuable on your Disk, boot up your computer in Dos prompt or Comamnd Prompt or Safe made then open Command Prompt.\n\nWhen your in there run the command \n"Chkdsk" this will scan your C drive for errors.\n\nif it still doesnt work try "fdisk". Its another utility to help "seperate" them. \n\nIf your not comfortable playing around with your computer, start it up regualry, right click C: (or w/e hard drive) Properies tools, Check for Errors or something along those lines it should be under Defragmat. \n\nCheck "fix automatically" \nIt will say "its in use check disc next time the system rebbots"  click yes\n\nnow reboot, you can expect you computer to be doing this for at least an Hour.\n\ngood luck

Backup all your information, format the HD and reinstal OS. Probably the easiest way.

not easy, amatuer moves are dropping, freezing, but professional places go in a clean room, open it up, and move the discs to another drive and recover as much data as possible.  this is an expensive process and have to decide if what you want to recover is worth it or not.  data recovery places advertise in back of computer magazines or you can search the internet for data recovery services.

If the drive won't spin up your could replace the controller board (on the hard drive), though it works rarely and you have to have another hard drive on you (that is pretty much the same model, if not exact).\n\nThere are programs you can use, I use Fujitsu Final Data. Most of them require licenses.\n\nThe freezer technique works rarely as well, but you may be able to get some data off it. I just used it with one of my client's hard drives and it worked for five minutes.\n\nData Recovery engineers will charge you as much as $1500 to $2000.\n\nYou might be able to slave it off and pull data from it.\n\nBut if you have damaged plates then you are pretty much out of luck with cheap solutions.

Reformat the hard disk again. I think it should solve your problem.
