Need to Get Data off a Failing HDD?

(Monday, July 13, 2009)

This is going to sound kinda funny but trust me it does work.
If you have a Hard Drive that's going out on you and every time you try to transfer all your data to another disk it keeps failing you will want to take the following steps:

  1. Get some ziplock bags
  2. Put HDD in ziplock bag
  3. Stick it in your freezer and wait for a few hours
  4. Connect your HDD and get the info off as fast as you can
This has worked for me every time.
