  • I HAVE SAME HARDDRIVE

  • what's the music name?

  • cut at 2:06

  • mines sayes boot failure system halted help!!!!

  • Bullshit

  • Comment removed

  • This works but is not permanate. If you are lucky you will get 1 or 2 more boots out of the thing. just enough to get your data off it. however if condensatoin has built up you will fry it and lose everything.

  • its not reccomended to put a hard drive on a freezer because it might destroy the circuts on the hard drive...and are you a professional technician?

  • condensation WILL form inside of the HDD as soon as you take it out of the freezer

  • Thanks, I've tried this trick, with little to no success. BUT, some situations are better than others, so I would give this a try everytime.

  • It will work but quite often only once...this is for getting those photos off the drive one last time. I have used this method for years but this is not going to restore a hard drive and when this was discovered circa 1990...no one thought this was a 'fix'.

  • Cmon man, at least use an ESD safe bag

  • @JDTV1995 Your being too cautious. If anything the moisture would get to it first. I've NEVER shocked anything in my entire career and broke something. Even zapped a computer with a static charge I built up once and still, no damage, odd.

  • While the way this was preformed, yeah not good, If you wanted to last ditch method, don't expose the drive to air. Ziplock the bag with a drive, remove as much air from bag as possible, then place in freezer. Upon removal from freezer do not remove from ziplock back, but rather put some type of cloth around the drive,and bag to hold the temp. Then cut out only the back end of the bag to expose the connectors to connect HD to CPU.Do not let in air warm humid air. AS a last ditch only method.

  • ice drive.. ^^ funny..

  • if anyone does this they are stupid as fuck

  • @TheJudge137 Actually no, it does work, and generally it's one of the very few safe methods to get a drive to live for a few minutes-hours, since opening the drive is a great way to permanantly FUCK UP a drive

  • i try this it works

  • Wow did you see him whipping of the water condensation? That drive is not sealed it has a breather hold. Do you think that water just might condense on the platters damaging the heads. Nothing can touch the head nothing not water, your finger, a spec of dust nothing can touch them. So I think this video is a hoax so you can fuck up the heads on your drive.

  • nice job i try puting my hole system unit in refrigirator in 2 weeks........... hahahaha........... LOL

  • nice job i try puting my hole system unit in refrigirator in 2 weeks........... hahahaha........... LOL

  • NEVER TRY THIS! you create ice crystals on the platers and the motherboard of your drive, if crystals form your platers, the read heads will or could snag and damage your drives to the point of instant breakage.

  • Does this work with external hard drives? The external hd keeps blinkiing red and blue where it should just be blue. And theres a clicking noise and i dont think the disc is running inside. So should i try this?

  • anong flavor nyang ice cream?

  • I have had freezing work for a few minutes, say 20 tops) to quickly grab some text files but it is not 100% effective. Nor does it fix all problems. Also, the moment you take it out of that bag you have condensation forming which will kill the drive and nothing will work after that. So do with caution and trash the drive after. And only if you really must get the files and have no other choice.

  • What i did was shut off the main power then turned it on but left my pc off for a few mins then it worked again

  • Works 15% of the time. Good for data recovery only. Sometimes it will only boot for 5 minutes, sometimes for 30. This will not fix the hd. It will only make it boot long enough to recover data. 15% OF THE TIME! I also studied computer science and I also have an associates in ccna. So suck on that! BITCHES.

  • @o0oColdfireo0o from where the University of Phoenix?

  • mine doesn't boot :( the disk is not even spinning .is it because i removed it's jumper?

  • potanginaa naman nyan... pre

  • Lets see. I spent 5 years at Uni studying for a degree in Computer Science and all I had to do was put the drive in the fridge. What a crock of shit this video is.

  • huahahaaa.. for all computer noobs in youtube...... a pixel of water can make ur entire computer got burned by short circuit.... don't ever try this at home...... this only useable to play prank on ur enemy not ur friend... dangerous level 4.....

  • Just because this didn't work for yours doesn't mean it will not for anyone. There is more than one way a HD can fail. Also, this isn't intended to fix the HD, just get it up long enough to get data off, then can it.

  • It works!!!!! Thanks dude! :)

  • This does not work

  • pwede ba sa SATA hard drive yang process na ganyan?

  • i doubt on it

  • i think you just used a nother HDD

  • why? when I remove the HD, then I connect directly to the computer its happen damage(fire)......why?

  • An additional option is to put it in the microwave for 10 minutes on full power. It also doesn't recover your data, but it will make some nice light-effects.

  • Don't believe any of this!!!! If your hard drive has failed it will stay failed, freezing, what a load of rubbish. It's been tried and tested and it doesn't work.

  • i actually was told this method of data recovery from a hardware teacher I quote his words "jus pop that sucker in the freezer and she'l fire right up" though i never tried i can definitly see how it would help the drive from any further heat damage

    caused ....

  • ok naman xa. nag disk boot failure ung cpu ng ate ko taz nag search kami kung panu e sosolve ung problem namin. ginawa namin gaya sa video na ito. gumana. pero ang mali namin hindi kami nag back up. nakapag pc pa kami ng 10 hours pero nung e open ulit namin ganun nanaman xa i think we need to change our HD. anyways thanks. it's working for me. tested :D

  • naman talaga bang maayos yon pag nilagay ko sa rep? maaayos ba un kung papalitan ko ung hard disk ko??

  • it has to be a DC SHIRT!!! dont you seee???

  • yah but this is not a video trick or fake i cut because the pc is too slow loading. freeze ur hd is an old trick that u can recover your data.

  • @chicologz Twat. It will Damage it if anything. I'm not gonna sit here and read this bullcrap. I study computer maintenance and repair at university. This will do nothing.
