About NTFS File System Stop Error 0x000000024 and Measures to Overcome

0 Comments
NTFS is an abbreviated form of new technology file system and popularly used in many windows based operating systems such as Windows NT, XP, Server 2003, 7 etc. It is designed to overcome from the FAT file system bugs and to provide the user a great level of file security, encryption and a large volume of space to store the data. NTFS has a splendid features called transaction log, which help's to recover automatically from disk failure. If the disk is formatted with NTFS file system, User can set permissions to the desired files and folders according to their needs and can share over the large or local network.

In these days, Blue screen error 0x000000024 or NTFS_File_System error are the most frustrating error and can happen any times while using the windows operating systems and user will lose all the important data suddenly. To Resolve Blue screen of death error 0x000000024, user have to use third party NTFS data recovery software which helps to recover the deleted/formatted data back.

User have no choice when this happens except to see a blue screen of death which is an indication of something going wrong with the NTFS system driver called ntfs.sys and system needs to boot to stop any further damage. All the windows operating systems use the common ntfs.sys driver that allows any external programs to read and write the data in NTFS format. All the read/write permission was regulated by ntfs.sys and if it finds any unexpected things in its operation, ntfs.sys would suddenly stop every running program. These issues can also cause if the hard disk is corrupted or having bad sectors, damaged SCSI or IDE drivers.

Whenever this happens, user will get this message 'Stop error 0x000000024' or 'NTFS_File_System error' and have to restart it manually. If the system runs normally as before, it means the file system has recovered the error automatically and user don't have to do any modification or changes anywhere, but if it fails to restart or not responding at all then read this article further to know the troubleshooting steps.

User can try to recover from this error by following some simple steps such as disabling any antivirus programs, defragmentation tools or any other system recovery tools which constantly running in background and monitoring your hard drive. Registry cleaner could also help sometime to recover from this error. But if these steps fail to recover perform the below operation:

  • Running chkdsk /r from the command prompt will find the errors and can try to repair the disk volume, but may take some time.
  • This can be performed manually too by going to the desired volume properties>click on tools>check disk for errors.

If none of the above mentioned steps could able to solve the issue, the only available option is to format the drive and then the system will start to function properly as before. But this may format the important data after which user have to use any standard ntfs data recovery software to get their data back.

Limitations of Hard Disk Recovery & Steps to Improve its Performance

2 Comments
As the storing device technologies continue progressing, Users have more option and capacity
to store their valuable data. In the past time, Users have only 50 MB to 1 GB of hard disk to
store the data, but now they can store up to thousands GB(Tera Byte) of data that can contains
millions of photo or thousands of songs and many more.

Users are so worried about storing their data to a better place because no one can guarantee
about their hard disk durability and at what moment the HDD will become corrupted or
malfunctioned. As a result, User would have no longer any access to their memorable images
or songs. These kinds of situations are so weird and pain full. But thanks to hard drive recovery
technologies, which recovers all the important data from the hard disk in some most extreme
situations.

So, if someone is having any hard disk that is corrupted or the important data in HDD get
permanently deleted i.e., accidentally users pressed shift + Delete while deleting any important
data, please read further to known exactly about how to improve the performance of your
HDD and what steps can be taken to recover your data completely. Its strongly recommended
to avoid doing experiments on the HDD such as freezing it, riding car over your HDD,
hampering it etc. to test disk recovery limitation because every hard disk is having its own
recovery limitation, in which after crossing the specified limit, there is no possibility of
rescuing your important data at any how.

Infrastructure:


Platter
It's a circular tape created by using aluminum and fixed with spindle motor. Responsible for
storing the data.

Base Casting
It's made up of aluminum and surfaced to hard disk which protects the hard drive from
external dust.

Spindle Motor
Spindle motor is small, fixed with platter and causes it to move circular. It's main aim to
provide long lasting consistent power supply for continuous use.

Logic Board
Logic board is the main source of read/write operation on the hard disk and connected to
read/write head by a ribbon cable.

Read/Write Head

This is the most important part of the HDD that enables the logical data which in the form of
bits, to be written over platter in the form of magnetic pulses and vice versa. While reading
the data from the platter. R/W Head can perform both the operation concurrently in some
modern hard disks.


Tracks and Sectors
Each platter is the combination of thousands of concentric circles, called tracks and each tracks
are broken into thousands of pieces, called sectors. Each sector can contain upto 512 bytes of
data. Often the combination of sectors is known as clusters in the hard disk.


Ways to Improve Hard Disk Performance


Each hard disk becomes older as the time pasts and start to respond slowly and can even fail
completely. Well known reason behind the hard disk failure is mentioned below:

  • Due to of bad sectors and blocks,
  • Heated to peak point for using maximum resources that cause hard disk to crash,
  • Failure of spindle motor which causes platter to spin and
  • System shut down accidentally while the disk operation is in process.

So, its necessary to take some basic precautions to keep the hard drive free from any failures.
Instead of this, User will also need to follow some guidelines that greatly helps to improve hard disk performance and speed as well. Such as:

  • Never turn of the PC for a longer period of time as its platter become stuck if not uses frequently.
  • Don't format the hard drive unless and until its really needy.
  • Always prefer to use a standard source of power supply.
  • Using system utilities on a daily basis will keep the hard drive more reliable and speedy i.e., Defragment, Disk Cleanup etc.

Above mentioned steps are some of the common phenomena or ways to keep away hard disk healthy and free from any failure or crash.

Limitations of Hard Disk Recovery

Sometimes after taking all the precautions, the hard disk will become crashed or corrupted
due to off taking it from bad manufacturers. So it's always wise to take regular backup of
all the data, but if not, there is still a chance to recover the data with 100% accuracy. Many
novices were start doing experiment on their hard disk such us freezing it, wetting it and
start drying it with a warm air in the hope that might their hard disk will start to work again.
But these ways were not going to help you in anyway except to delete the remaining
possibility of recovering the data from the hard disk.

Hard disk has a limitation in which if the hard drive gets completely corrupted, many disk
recovery experts/hard drive recovery companies will refuse to recover the data from the
hard disk. Even many data recovery software would unable to recover the data. So
whenever the hard disk stopped responding or become inaccessible, just properly shut down
the system in a proper manner and let the HDD to any data recovery experts, or digg the
web, and I'm sure you will find some useful ways of recovering your data.
