Is your hard drive a Western Digital or a Samsung drive? As far as I know, these companies provide data recovery services for their own drives. Contact the manufacturer's technical assistance through email and inquire about the pricing. Unfortunately, the low-cost method of recovering data – maintaining a proper backup – is no longer available. 

Your next thinking after considering data recovery is typically how much it will cost to recover your data from the dead external hard drive.

You should consider many different elements to calculate the cost of data recovery work, including:

• The failure scenario for the external hard drive.
• The extent of physical component damage.
• The brand, model, and firmware revision of the hard drive.
• The time it will take engineers to retrieve the data.

The size, kind, or quantity of files you need to recover do not affect the price of hard drive data recovery. In other words, the recovery procedure is the same whether you need a single file or the full contents of the hard drive.

Hard drive malfunctions are divided into logical and physical failures. When one or more hard disk components quit working, this is referred to as a physical failure. User mistakes or software-related problems can lead to logical failures.

Data recovery expenses for logical hard drive failures are typically lower than for physical failures. However, a significant portion of our cost is determined by the number of hours engineers devote to each instance. It can take just as long to fix some logical problems as to fix severely broken circuit boards, crashing read and write heads, and other physical failures, such as substantial file corruption.

We strongly advise you to get assistance from reputable data recovery software. Which recovery program should you download when there are so many options?
