I. Data loss on SSD

1. Reasons for data loss in solid state drives

Many believe SSDs are less prone to data loss due to the absence of a robotic arm for reading or writing data. However, the lack of mechanical parts does not necessarily reduce the risk. Here are a few reasons for data loss from SSDs:
● Unknown viral infection
● Accidentally delete data
● Sudden power failure of the computer
● File transfer interrupted
● The SSD is formatted

2. Some suggestions after data loss in SSD

If the solid-state drive hasn’t experienced a major failure, detecting data loss can be challenging. However, once data loss is identified, whether due to virus infection or misuse, immediately stop using the SSD to prevent overwriting old data with new data. Use professional data recovery software, such as Renee Undeleter, to retrieve lost data promptly. Refer to this article to check if your solid-state drive is damaged.
If your SSD is physically damaged, data recovery software won’t help. You need to take the drive to a professional repair organization.

While hard disk data recovery software offers a convenient solution, its success rate isn’t 100%. If the lost data is damaged, the software may fail to restore and repair files. To prevent data loss, consider the following suggestions.

III. How to prevent data loss in SSD?

In fact, in order to prevent the data loss of the solid state drive, you can refer to the following methods for prevention, as follows:
Create Backup: When the SSD becomes slow during file transfers, running applications, or encounters unknown errors, these may be early signs of damage. Typically, after 5 years of use, it’s crucial to make daily backups. Without backups, data loss is inevitable if the SSD fails. Data recovery software can sometimes retrieve lost data, but damaged data is irrecoverable. Therefore, making an advance backup is essential.
Install the latest SSD management software: Keeping your SSD management software up to date allows for real-time status detection and ensures the device is safeguarded against basic failures. Check the official websites of various well-known brands for SSD management tools.
Remove the device before a potential SSD error occurs: Safely remove the SSD when you suspect it might fail to prevent irreparable loss. If safe ejection is not possible, shut down and then remove it.
Buy a high-quality SSD: It is more durable, has a longer lifespan, and offers better data security.
