Data Recovery

We provide recovery services for failing disk drives, or corrupted/erased data on IDE, SCSI, SATA, and Flash Drives with FAT, FAT32, or NTFS file systems.

You should be aware that successful in-house recovery depends on the root cause of your disk failure:

bulletData Corruption/Loss - This can occur by various means:  Viruses, accidental file deletion, and certain hardware failures.  These failures are where our recovery is most effective.  Among the recoveries we perform are:
 
bulletDeleted, corrupted, or virus-damaged files, partitions, and boot sectors.
bulletRead errors.
bulletRaw recovery of over 290 file types, even if the file tables no longer exist.
bulletMicrosoft Access and Excel 2.0, 95, 97, 2000, XP and 2003 files.
bulletMicrosoft PowerPoint 97, 2000, XP and 2003 files.
bulletMicrosoft Word 6.0, 95, 97, 2000, XP, and 2003 files.
bulletMicrosoft Outlook 97, 98, 2000, XP, and 2003 files.
bulletMicrosoft Outlook Express 5.0 and later files.
bulletWinZip and ZipMagic files.
 
bulletHardware Failures - Drive electronics, motor, read/write heads, head access mechanism, bearings, and the disk medium (oxide) make up the list of possible failures.  Depending on which component has failed, and the failure severity, your data can still be recoverable.
 
bulletIn cases where your data cannot be extracted, we may recommend that you consider sending your disk to a cleanroom recovery company, such as Ontrack.  Cleanroom facilities allow for your disk platters to be removed, cleaned, and placed in a working drive. Data recovery is then attempted, and any recovered files are returned to you, typically on a new drive.  Cleanroom recovery services are usually expensive (several hundred dollars), but offer the best chance of saving crucial data.
