Whether your Vaio’s hard drive is experiencing bad sectors, file system corruption, or partial mechanical failure, our expert engineers provide comprehensive recovery solutions with industry-leading tools and processes.

🛠 Common Sony Vaio Fault – Files Missing or Inaccessible

Typical Symptoms:

  • Files and folders disappear without warning.
  • Windows reports “Location is not available.”
  • The system freezes or crashes when accessing folders.
  • Boot failures with error messages like “No bootable device found.”
  • Disk health reports showing pending or uncorrectable sectors.

Probable Causes:

  • Bad Sectors: Physical degradation of the hard drive platters can cause read failures.
  • File System Corruption: Often due to improper shutdowns, power loss, or logical errors.
  • Mechanical Degradation: Read/write heads may struggle to process data.
  • Malware or Software Conflict: Can corrupt the Master File Table (MFT) or system registry.

🔧 Technical Recovery Process: Step-by-Step

1. Initial Diagnostics & Read Stability Analysis

  • The drive is connected via a write-blocked imaging system to prevent further degradation.
  • SMART attributes and sector access maps are analysed to assess the presence of bad sectors or head damage.

2. Imaging with Controlled Sector Handling

  • Using hardware-based imaging (e.g., DeepSpar Disk Imager), the drive is cloned in multiple passes.
  • Unreadable sectors are retried under adjusted voltage, timing, or head skipping to preserve as much raw data as possible.

3. File System Reconstruction

  • The recovered image is mounted for logical analysis.
  • Damaged or partially overwritten file systems (NTFS, FAT32, exFAT) are reconstructed manually.
  • If the partition table or Master Boot Record (MBR) is corrupted, it’s rebuilt based on recovered headers and metadata fragments.

4. Data Carving & Metadata Restoration

  • Deleted or corrupted files are extracted using forensic carving techniques.
  • Indexes, folder structures, and timestamps are preserved when possible.
  • Checksums or file hashes are used to verify recovered content integrity.

5. Final Validation & Data Export

  • Once data is fully recovered, it’s transferred to a secure external drive.
  • File-level validation ensures that critical formats (documents, photos, videos) are readable and structurally intact.
