What is a logical failure?
Disk drive logical failures are usually a result of file-system corruption. It can be due to a virus infection, accidental deletion of system critical files or registry components, and in many cases electro-static discharge. With most logical failures, the drive is still recognized by the BIOS, but it will not boot. With these failures, data should still be intact on the drive, even though it appears to be inaccessible.

Hard Drive Storage
A hard drive is the main storage device in a computer. It stores information internally on platters magnetically. Platters are typically made of aluminum or glass and coated with a layer of magnetic material on both sides. The platter or platters are mounted on a spindle and spun by a motor when the drive is powered on.
