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.

For WD SMR HDDs, they usually have firmware lock and SED V2 lock issue. To unlock the firmware area, users can use firmware unlock PCB. To fix the SED V2 issue, users can use the following methods:

1, Solder wires on original USB PCB;
2, Use
HDD USB-SATA wiring PCB;
3, Use Data Unlock SATA Connectors;

Now we have another method: When the original PCB is physically damaged, users can only transfer the main controller IC to firmware unlock PCB to fix SED v2 issue.

The following two Main Controller IC Reballing Stencils are available now to make the MCU transfer job easier and more successful:

Dolphin team have created new WD smr hdd firmware repair functions to repair and recover lost data from these drives at a higher success rate.

Sector 000000 is one very common problem in the Western Digital SMR hard drive data recovery cases due to the module 190 loading failure to RAM or module 190 corruption.

Within the new DFL hdd repair and data recovery software, users can find very good functions: module 190 repair and module 190 auto loading(T2 auto loading) to RAM and this auto T2 loading is unique and helps to fix many cases other tools cannot fix.

Dolphin engineers will teach users how to backup the module 190 perfectly and this is the most important step to fix WD SMR cases. Next users can use the T2 auto loading tech. to fix cases such as the sector 000000 firmware issue. If T2 cannot be loaded automatically, after power reset, the HDD can be sector 000000 again.

‘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’
