  • DO NOT attempt to access files. This can damage the hard drive.

Our 3-step data retrieval process

We’ve formulated a three-step data retrieval process that yields the best possible results.

1. Assessment

First, we comprehensively assess the health of your hard drive. This evaluation allows us to diagnose the issue and its severity. The drive may have experienced a logical or mechanical failure or physical damage.

2. File list

Using professional-grade tools and software, we begin the process of recovering your valuable data. We will provide you with a detailed list of recoverable files. Once you confirm this list, we will proceed with a full recovery.

3. Recovery

After your files have been recovered, we copy them to a portable hard drive or upload them to a cloud storage provider.

Avoid future data loss

You have experienced first-hand just how stressful data loss can be. Prevent future data loss by investing in two to three forms of backup.

We always recommend a combination of cloud-based and portable hard drive backups paired with a reliable backup software – such as Acronis. For household and small businesses, we also recommend using a Network Attached Storage (NAS) server. These systems have built-in RAID backup and will continue to function even after a hard drive has failed.

Chat with our experienced team today to discuss the best backup options for you. Our technicians can help you create a fully customised backup solution that gives you peace of mind.
