    Corrupt HDD + BitLocker + Data Recovery

    Hey guys,

    I have a BarraCuda 500GB 2.5 HDD. The HDD is failing. I checked with HD Tune Pro and it only gets about 2% error scan before it just fails and won't scan anymore. Lots of damaged blocks. The HDD is encrypted with BitLocker. I have the 48 number key. The laptop where the HDD was installed in wouldn't boot. So I installed the HDD into another computer using an external enclosure using Windows 10. The HDD is recognized as a BitLocked drive and asks for the key. I insert the key and it is accepted. But from there Windows fails to load it and it just hangs and eventually says the drive needs to be formatted. I am trying to get any data off this drive. I have some questions.

    1. How do I permanently remove BitLock from the drive once I unlock it? Or should I permanently remove BitLocker to have a higher chance of recovering data?
    2. How does recovering data work on a BitLocked drive?
    3. Is there a specific tool I should be using to recover data on a BitLocked drive?
    4. When should I attempt to repair the drive? Before or after I unlock Bit?

    If anyone has a step by step guide I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks!

    HELP: Automatic BitLocker Unlock.

    Thank you sir, ill try your solution.

    Windows Auto unlock ONLY works in case you have Bitlocker on your system drive, because if your system drive is not encrypted auto unlocking other drives means loss of security.
    But in my case my system drive is Encrypted with hardware encryption that i password unlock during boot. So auto unlocking Bitlocker drives will do fine for me.

    Entering correct BitLocker recovery key results in 'Failed to unlock with this recovery key'

    Hi,

    It is possible that the disk or the hard drive is locked out or restricted by your company's server. We would like to isolate this concern for you so we could refer you to the right TechNet forum or provide you the appropriate troubleshooting steps. Kindly
    answer these questions:

    • Is your computer connected on a network domain?
    • Are you trying to recover BitLocker keys to remove them or to access then?
    • When did the issue start happening?

    We're looking forward to your response.
