Hard drive recovery FAQ

Good to know

My drive is clicking — should I keep trying?
No. Clicking usually means mechanical failure, and repeated power-ups can destroy data permanently. Power it off and bring it in.
How much does recovery cost?
It depends on the failure and required work. We start with an evaluation and explain the proposed approach, limitations and quote before paid work.
Can you recover from a formatted drive?
Recovery may be possible, depending on the formatting method, overwriting and drive condition. Stop using the drive and tell us what happened before the assessment.
Is my data kept private?
Yes. Recovered data is handled confidentially and returned to you on fresh media.

Don’t give up on that drive yet

Bring it in for an evaluation. We will explain the available options, limitations and proposed next step.

Before you book

Planning your hard drive data recovery request

What to prepare

Power off a drive that clicks, repeatedly disconnects or is no longer detected. Do not open the casing or keep retrying recovery software on unstable media.

What to expect

Mechanical damage and overwritten sectors affect recovery options. Describe any drop, power event or previous attempt so the assessment starts with the right context.
