The data in these platters are magnetically coded. The structure of a hard drive is complex and they contain a number of moving parts and electrical circuit boards. Any physical damage in these components will lead to data loss or hard disk failure. This type of requires an expert's knowledge. The parts of the may need to be disassembled to fix the problem.
