Data has to be migrated from one location to another for a variety of reasons. A lot of times, it may be because the hardware has failed or become obsolete and data has to be transferred to a newer computer. Or a company simply changes location, or more commonly, the data itself has become bigger that some or all of it must be moved to additional array. Data migration, then, is part of corporate growth.
As data becomes larger and more complex, the process of data migration becomes more challenging and requires an altogether distinct specialty of work. Thus came about the development of data migration consulting services which ensure proper management of data migration.
Long gone are the days when hackers were only adventurist IT students trying out their skills naughtily and for free. Today, spyware and virus authors are in it for the money and make that as their livelihood. They hijack computers to send spam, steal identities and finances online.
With so many of us now heavily reliant on our computers and the internet It is now more urgent than ever to protect your system, files and personal data against spyware and viruses.
You may lose your photos by many reasons. The following are 5 such reasons. Be aware of them and have a mindset to prepare for and protect you from these common reasons for photo data loss.
The hard drive is the brain, heart and soul of your computer. It is an amazing marvel of computing technology as its storage capacity and cost have dramatically improved through the years. It is unfortunate, however, that its basic weakness still remains. Being mechanical, hard drive are prone to simply reaching an end to their working life, dying out eventually.
Something a bit fun for this blog post, we have for you a collection of retro computer and hard drive adverts. It is amazing to see how much the computer has changed in such a short history and also how much the humble hard drive has progressed over the last few decades, especially the size and the prices.
Sooner or later, almost every computer will experience hard drive failure in some way, shape or form. Like any other item of hardware which has moving parts, a hard drive used long enough will eventually fail. But before a hard drive gets irreparably damaged and the data irrevocably lost, there are ominous tell-tale signs signaling its demise. If you are able to recognise these symptoms early on, chances are the data on the failing drive can be saved or, even better, you will have ample time to back up important data.
When you find yourself in need of our professional data recovery services, you need to know how to safely transport your hard drive to the recovery company to prevent it from ending up in a worse condition while en route.
Keep the following tips in mind when sending your drive to Kingdom Data Recovery:
Read/write heads are very small parts of the disk drive which move on top of the disk platter and transform the platter’s magnetic field into electrical current and electrical current back into magnetic signals. In essence, then, read/write heads are minute electromagnets which perform conversion from magnetic to electrical information and back.

| Vernon Barker – Derbyshire |
Vernon emailed Kingdom Data Recovery when his external hard drive stopped working and he was unable to access the data.
On the same day Vernon contacted us he received a shipping form which he filled in and posted with his hard drive directly to the company.
After receiving the hard drive we diagnosed the issue and contacted Vernon the same day to discuss the cost and what we could recover. Upon the successful recovery we supplied Vernon with a file list to ensure what we got back was what he required.
UPS stands for uninterruptible power supply or uninterruptible power source. This is an electrical device meant to provide power supply to a load in the case of a power outage or when the power input fails. It differs from an auxiliary or emergency power system or standby generator in that a UPS device provides instantaneous (or very nearly instantaneous) protection from power outages.
At any moment and for any reason, power supply could be suddenly cut off. Power outage can result from electrical poles being damaged by storms or traffic accidents. Faults in the grid or power plant can also cause blackouts. Or there simply may not be enough power supply in a particular area at that time, so power outages are scheduled. We have learned to cope with these inconveniences but our computers, unfortunately, just are not hardwired to cope with them in the same way.
