Digital Media means media in its digital format. We have seen many traditional media in our childhood, such as TV, tape cassette, posters, brochures, videotapes. But you do not see tape cassettes and videotapes now, why? Because we use CDs and DVDs instead. Moreover, TV, posters, and brochures and books have their digital formats today. You see a lot of movies and e-books on the Internet, right? My intention of mentioning this is to show the difference. Compared to traditional media, digital media is far more easy to store and transmit from person to person. When you are back from your travel, you can easily copy the photos from camera to the computer, and then send them to your friends miles away by e-mail. How convenient it is! But there is one major drawback of digital media. That is data loss. An improper mouse click can wipe out one to hundreds of images you kept on your disk. Pressing the wrong button on the camera may result in memory card format, causing you to lose all the photos. Data loss is more likely to occur at the time of massive file transfer. How to avoid digital media file loss? And how to recover the lost digital files when data loss already happened?

To avoid digital media file loss, you should protect the media storage device by handling it carefully. For example, you should be careful not to bend the SD card or shutdown the computer by force. Also, please make backups of important files regularly.

But what should you do, when the data loss already happened?

Our freeware, iCare Data Recovery Free comes to your rescue. It's capable of recovering photos, audios, videos and documents on hard disks and removable media devices (such as memory card recovery and usb flash disks recovery).

It is what the data recovery software is meant to solve. Download and install iCare Data Recovery Free and follow the steps below.

Tips for you, on Prolonging the Life of Removable Flash Drive

If you are using a usb flash drive or memory card (SD or CF card), these suggestions are for you.

- Don't download large media files (songs or movies) directly onto the drive. Download it to your computer and move it to the drive. Because downloading involves read and write, which reduces the life of flash drive.

- Keep it in cool places.

- Don't touch water with it or keep it connected to PC for long.

-Don't use it on public computers in a net cafe.

Recover Formatted Photos images for Free

Sometimes we come across a kind of partition failure in which a drive shows "the drive is not formatted, doyou want to format it now?" It may be removable drive or hard disk, but in both cases it seems you have no other way except to format them to access it. However, if you don't have backups of the data contained in the problem drive, you don't need to worry, because you can use data recover software to retrieve the data out at first, and then do the format. Even if you already performed the format, there's great chance of recovering the files still.

Another instance is mistaken formatting. It could happen on digital camera if you are not familiar with the menus and options. It could happen on cell phones if you choose 'reset' or 'restore'. Also, you may format a drive by mistake on computer.

Disk formatting process creates the file system format on the disk. All the space is marked as free, though the data remains. Therefore, you can use free data recovery software to get back these files. With our iCare Data Recovery Free, you can

Recover photos of various types, which are indicated by different file extensions, such as .jpg, .png, .gif, .bmg, .tiff, etc, and camera raw images can be restored, such as .cr2, .sr2, .nef, .dng, etc.

Recover photos on various storage media, such as hard disk, SD memory card, USB flash drive, CF cards, external hard disks, etc.

Perform data recovery without altering data on the target drive, for it's read-only. The recovered files are not saved back to the target drive, instead, you should save it somewhere else. It's also a measure to prevent data overwriting.

Preview the found photos before choosing to recover them.

Recover not only photos, but audio, video and documents.

iCare Data Recovery Free provides you with four data recovery modes which suit different customers demands. For example, when your partition is lost, you can choose "Lost Partition Recovery" to get back lost files on the invisible partition; and when you formatted the SD card accidentally, you can choose "Format Recovery" to recover files on the SD card. While "Deep Scan Recovery" handles more difficult tasks such as bad MBR, bad partition table, system crashes. This free tool is very powerful.

*Some knowledge on format

Formatting a disk involves three steps:

Low-level formatting, which is closest to the hardware, marks the surfaces of the disks with markers indicating the start of a recording block. Low-level format is completed in factory and therefore has nothing to do with end users.

Partitioning created data structures needed by the operating system. Also called intermediate-level format, it checks defective tracks and sectors on hard disk.

High-level formatting is what we refer to in data recovery technology. The process creates the file system format with the structure created in Partitioning. After high-level format, all files are deleted, all space is marked as free, but the data remains on the disk.
