This is my first time here so please excuse any errors. I have my desktop in storage in my home country and only I have the key. I had some very important family data on my USB hard drive which I was using with my laptop but recently the drive crashed and I lost everything. I don't need this data right now but I can only go home after 6 months or maybe 1 year. Desktop is already lying for 6 years but well packed in a nice cool place with no movement.
My question is will it all work after 7 years? Even if desktop doesn't work that's ok, but I am worried about the hard drives inside. My friend just now says after some time of not using them the heads will get stuck and stop moving, so I am very worried now. What should I do? Please give me some advice. Thank you.
