Lerner Hard Drive Was "Scratched" IRS ignored advice to use outside experts to recover data

Washington, DC – Despite early refusals to make available IT professionals who worked on Lois Lerner’s computer, Ways and Means Committee investigators have now learned from interviews that the hard drive of former IRS Exempt
quote:

Organizations Director Lois Lerner was “scratched,” but data was recoverable. In fact, in-house professionals at the IRS recommended the Agency seek outside assistance in recovering the data. That information conflicts with a July 18, 2014 court filing by the Agency, which stated the data on the hard drive was unrecoverable – including multiple years’ worth of missing emails.

Something doesn't feel right about this. How do they know it was "scratched"? The HDD platters are contained in a sterile sealed casing. Removing them outside of a sterile clean room environment is a huge no no. The type of data recovery at their disposal, from what I understand, would not have warranted doing that.
