Data recovery is the process of salvaging deleted, formatted, corrupted, damaged or inaccessible data from the storage media as it cannot be accessed through normal way. There are two types of data recovery which is physical recovery and logical recovery. Physical recovery needs special equipment to repair the damaged parts of storage device like scratched plates, stalled spindle, fried chip, etc. and this process need to be undertaken in clean and controlled environment to extract data from storage device. Logical recovery is a software-based solution that recovers data from storage device which faced logical error in operating system or accidental user deletion. This paper will discuss on logical recovery and it is divided into few sections which is public awareness on data recovery, literature review on existing data recovery tool, analysis on user requirements for data recovery tool, proposed data recovery tool functionality and proposed data recovery tool framework.
