4tb wd external hard disk accidentally format data recovery

,

I have 4tb wd external hard disk purchased one month before. I accidentally click on format hard disk become 0 byte. I use some data recovery software but no data show. How to recover data？

This is one email from one single pc user asking for data recovery solutions to recover lost data from above WD 4TB external hard drive.

For this kind of format case, the recovery chance is on the windows os and users can confirm the failure detail by checking the hdd by winhex and find out if all sectors are 0000 or not.

Some format cases cause all 0000 and the data is gone; and some other format cases don’t affect the hex data much and the data is still there.

If the format case doesn’t have other failures, users just need to use data recovery software such as r-studio to scan lost files.

If the format case has bad sectors or firmware corruption, users need to use data recovery hardware tools such as DFL-SRP all-in-one data recovery equipment or DFL PCIE data recovery express to fix firmware issue or image the patient HDD or users need to use DFL-DDP to recover lost data by file types.

Create an Account on Dolphin Data Recovery Forum

‘Dear Sir or Madam,

I was wondering whether there is a way to still register an account on your Dolphin data recovery forums.
There is an issue with my current just-out-of-warranty-HDD that I would like to try and solve, however there are simply no more tools for me to try out – at least to which I have access to.

Thanks for your time.

Best regards

Moritz’

WD SMR HDD 2060-800077 810011 Unlock PCB Correct ROM Chip Location

,

There’re multiple similar chips on these WD SMR HDDs with PCB number 2060-800077 and 810011. Users are usually confused to find out the correct ROM chip.

The following are the correct ROM chip location:

WD 2060-800077 HDD Firmware Unlock PCB, click here
WD 2060-810011 HDD Firmware Unlock PCB, click here

When users are trying to use above firmware unlock PCBs, users need to use HDD ROM Chip Pin Reader to read the original rom and write the original rom to the unlock PCB and then install the unlock PCB to original HDD so that the original HDD firmware area can be accessed. If users don’t have HDD ROM chip pin reader, users need to solder the original rom chip off and solder it on to the unlock PCB rom chip location.

Please note: firmware unlock pcbs help only to access the firmware area and don’t bypass the SED V2 data encryption. To fix the SED V2 data encryption issue, users need to use HDD USB-SATA Wiring PCB Pro. or Data Unlock SATA Connectors.
