Memory Stick Recovery
We are here to help you with advanced data recovery from all working and non-working (broken) memory sticks, compact flash (CF), secure digital (SD) cards, universal serial bus (USB) drives, and all other types of flash (non-volatile memory) devices suffering from controller failure, blown power chips, or any other damage, irrespective of the condition of the media and/or potential data loss situation.
We Recover Data From The All Memory Stick Failure Scenarios, Including:
- Physically broken memory stick (Flash drive) connectors.
- Please insert the drive into (drive letter).
- The drive is not formatted; do you want to format it now?
- Memory stick (Flash drive) picks up as different capacity.
- A problem occurred while installing the driver.
- The memory stick (flash drive) is not detected in Windows.
- Memory stick detection is not showing up in Windows Explorer.
- Nothing happens when I plug in my memory stick (flash drive).
Typical Causes Of Failure:
- Flash memory is extremely sensitive to static electricity, and many memory stick failures are due to static discharge, typically caused by static electricity in the body that sends a spike through the memory stick when you handle it.
- Memory sticks exposed to humid conditions may also fail due to moisture build-up inside the capsule/casing.
- Memory stick controller failure and firmware corruption are not uncommon. When this happens, your machine will typically still detect that something is plugged in but will either say there is a problem installing it or that the drive needs to be formatted. It can also ask that you insert a disk when you click on the removable device icon in Windows Explorer or detect a false capacity and not allow any access to the disk. In a few cases, this can also be caused by a blown memory chip.
