Logical data recovery is performed when there is no physical damage or crashes with hard disk. Logical data disaster includes the example when data lost due to software virus, bad boot sectors, corrupted partition table, deleted files, or a formatted hard disk drive. Physical data disaster means when the components of hard disk such as circuit board failure, read/write head failure, platter damage etc get damaged.
