Clean Room Data Recovery

When dealing with a clean room lab, high sanitary levels must be maintained daily. Today's hard disk drive units are very sensitive, and grow more sensitive as the technologies grow faster and smaller. So contaminants in your hard drive can physically destroy it.

Important Clean Room Points
During the building of a clean room for hard disk drive recovery and repair, extreme care must be taken to prevent contaminants from entering the room. Typically, specialized contractors will use what is called a particle enclosure in order to stop contaminants from coming in. This is a critical step, as once contaminants have entered the clean room environment, it is quite difficult to get rid of them.

Federal Standards
For high cleanliness levels required by clean rooms for data recovery services, the Federal Standard STD-209E form is used. The standard classifies airborne particles in generally and their degree of cleanliness. Each particle class has limits to the amount of particles in a clean room, and when those limits are exceeded, measures must be taken to ensure the room can retain its clean room status.

Additional Details
The clean room used by Hard Drive Recovery Group and its partners is enclosed in a shell with external ventilation to separate the air in the clean room from that within the rest of the building. Data recovery technicians who work in the clean room must wear specialized gloves, masks, head coverings and special non-linting work suits. Our data recovery technicians are also subject to an additional air blast to ensure all potential contaminants have been removed.
