Your Hard drive crashes can come suddenly and without warning!
You may turn on your computer one day and receive an "Operating System not found", "Inaccessible Boot Disk", or similar error.
Hard drives typically last 3 to 5 years before failing but can fail as soon as 6 months to 1 year depending on operating conditions or physical trauma. Even if your computer is still under warranty the manufacturer will not assist you in recovering your data, they will simply send you a new hard drive.
Data recover labs charge steep fees typically ranging from £250 to £1500 and upwards. If mission critical data worth thousands of dollars is on the line, it may be worth it for you to pay the premium and go with a company like Ontrack or DTI Data.
But for many individual users and small businesses, spending thousands of dollars on data recovery is simply not an option.
Whether your notebook, desktop, or external hard drive has crashed, there's a good chance your data can be recovered utilizing sophisticated software analysis. Here at PC Repair Guru, we have successfully recovered accounting and Outlook data for small businesses, years worth of research and writing for graduate students, mp3 music libraries, personal photos, and even a film student's half terabyte of digital video.
We can also recover accidentally or maliciously deleted files emptied from the Recycle Bin or deleted via other means.
Not sure what happened or when it happened?
Just tell us everything you know and we'll give you our honest opinion as to whether the data can be recovered.
What do you need to do?
- Do not panic.
- Turn off the power.
- Do not restart the machine.
- Do not reinstall any software.
- Do not open the hard disk or try to repair it yourself.
Contact us to arrange a visit/collection so we can determine if your data can be recovered.
