What Is The Contribution Of A Clean Room Towards Effective Data Recovery

By: Bury Shane Home | Computers-and-Technology | Data Recovery


In a highly competitive world where one hard drive crash can wipe out an entire company from business, express precaution is taken to safeguard one’s data from leakage and theft.

This has more so become the rule in today’s world where a single data loss situation can wreak irreparable damage that can in no way be reimbursed in terms of finances and the destruction caused. This has prompted most of the data recovery companies to build up an infrastructure that can effectively and efficiently retrieve the lost data that has suffered deletion or mutilation. It is in this regard that Clean Rooms come into play.

The very concept of a Clean Room came into being in the early 60s, when the aeronautics industry started developing its high precision technology. Later on this idea spilt over to the other industries that required a similar environment for experimenting and preserving their finds and inventions.

A Clean Room is a specially designed working area where the environmental parameters like the quality of air, humidity, temperature and moisture are technically regulated and manipulated so as to protect the sensitive equipments, samples, apparatus and gadgets from getting contaminated by outside influence.

The size and expanse of the Clean Room depends on the requirement of the industry in question and can vary from an office cubicle to a relatively spacious room but its uniqueness lies in the fact that they can be permanent, modular or portable whichever suits the company.

Clean rooms have now made a niche for themselves in the industries that deal in bio-technology, nano-fabrication, space satellites, sterile medical devices, computer hardware, optics, silicon chips and microprocessors.


Clean rooms were first classified in the US in 1963 and from then on six categories have emerged ranging from Class 1 to Class 100,000. The classification is done on the basis of the number and size of particles allowed per unit volume of air inside the Clean Room. Closely tailing behind USA, UK came out with the British Standard 5295 in 1999 while the first ISO standard called ISO 14644-I was published in 1999. Ideally a Class 100 clean room contains not more than 100 particles of 0.5 microns or more per cubic foot of air and the calculations go likewise.

The technology that goes into preserving the Clean Room is tedious and complex but it’s every penny worth the effort. Every Clean room needs to maintain a laminar air flow so as to avoid turbulence and specially designed commodities, stationery, furniture and gadgets of specified quality are used. The trained and specialized professionals who work inside a clean room wear special gloves, face masks, head covers and bunny suits to prevent contamination.

The environment is kept dust-free and well-controlled by following an effective contamination control program which entails repeated filtering of the air using sets of special filters that remove particulate impurities that can cause any sort of harm. Specially designed filters called the HEPA (High Efficiency Particulate Air) filters are used to filter particles that may be as small as 0.3 microns.

Every data recovery company with a reasonable market standing has a Clean Room as this is an essential infrastructure which no data recovery company can do without. Since the Clean Rooms are used for the express purpose of dissecting the hard drive and physical servicing of the hard drive components even a small dust particle settling between the platters and the read/ write head can cause the disk to crash. Thus the clean room maintains an ideal environment for opening, operating and repairing such electronic devices.

If your hard drive has crashed and other hardware components in your computer are ill functioning, bank on Stellar Information Systems Ltd, a pioneer data recovery company specializing in data recovery and data protection services for assistance.

Equipped with trained and expert data recovery professionals and an excellent Clean room facility, Stellar can effectively retrieve your data from such situations by applying top-notch proprietary tools and techniques.

The procedure they follow is simple yet result yielding. The hard drive is dissected and the nonfunctional components are replaced and made operational again. A thorough hard drive scan is conducted and the recoverable data is effectively and efficiently extracted with maximum efforts exercised to maintain the original format.
