Physical USB connector damage
USB flash drives are commonly used for transferring data between locations, often enduring physical stress. Sometimes, users may not realize that the connector or PCB has been damaged. Signs of damage include the drive’s light blinking continuously without connecting to a Mac or PC. In such cases, a comprehensive analysis of the drive is necessary in our lab to diagnose and address the issue effectively.
If you’re unsure whether your data storage has failed or is in the process of failing, and your stored data is critically important, we can arrange for a technician to visit your location for a thorough diagnostic assessment. This ensures accurate identification of any issues affecting your data storage, as well as other IT concerns such as networking or cybersecurity.
NAND chip degradation due to long periods without power
Some users may use USB flash drives as long-term data storage without realizing that NAND chips require occasional electricity to keep NAND cells active and retain data. In cases where clients have stored USB flash drives for a year or more without power, the data can become corrupted or inaccessible. This issue is particularly common among photographers who use USB flash drives with lower-quality NAND chips to deliver photos from significant life events.

I cannot access my data!
The most crucial step to prevent further damage is to power off the hard drive immediately. Cease any attempts to use it and refrain from allowing anyone unfamiliar with the process to handle or attempt software scans or modifications on the disk. Following these precautions significantly enhances the likelihood of successful data recovery.
