Common Samsung hard disk failures
 |
The Samsung 2.5" hard disk will have various modes of failures. These failures are not exclusive to Samsung disk. However, some of the failures are more prevalent than any other failures.
- One common failure is its inability to load controlling RAM data and disk initialisation to ready state. The disk appears to be not spinning resulting in the drive not detectable by notebook system BIOS.
- Another common failure is faulty read write head. In this case, the drive will emit clicking, grinding and similar sounds, and the laptop will hang.
- In some other cases, the drive may slow down. Processes, like copying or simply opening up documents will take long time or even lose response. This problem is due to bad sectors, and originates from degradation of the platters itself.
Each failure mode warrants independent and separate treatment before data could be recovered.
