CD/DVD data storage devices are not so flexible as compare to other storage media but you cannot deny the fact that large percentage of the people choosing CD/DVD storage media for storing their favourite collection like music, Images, videos, movies etc on these optical media as they are inexpensive, easy to store, easy to transport but still they suffer with the problem of data loss from these optical media. The CD/DVD are physical external devices and can be harm easily by human error, virus attack, configuration error. The optical media can be damaged, scratched or inaccessible and when one of these situation arrive then the result comes only one i.e loss of our precious data or collection stored on that optical media like CD, DVD, Blu-ray disc and HD DVDs. In this situation data recovery is an excellant way to recover all lost data that you have lost. A CD DVD recovery software recovers lost or deleted data from the damaged, scratched or inaccessible optical media.

Let's talk about the main matter that 'how can we recover data from the scratched optical media'. As I told above that through a CD recovery software we can recover all lost data securly but there are number of CD recovery software available on the web. Let's take one of them good recovery software to explain the process of recovery. I have selected stellar cd dvd recovery software. The software provides two methods to recover data from disc's with scratched. First is optical media recovery and second one is surface scan recovery. Let's we perform optical media recovery

2. Once the disc mounted execute CD DVD recovery software
3. In the software under optical media recovery tab select the media/disc want to recover. Click Continue
4. A scan will be perform on the selected disc and all the files that are found in the optical disc are shown in three pane structure. You can see the preview of recoverable files by selecting bottom right pane.
