Success Rates

My hard drive has stopped working, what should I do?

The most important thing to do, in order to prevent any further damage, is to immediately power off the hard drive. It is important to stop using it and to not let anybody who does not know what they are doing use it or try to use any software to scan or make changes to the disk. Taking these measures will greatly improve the chances of a successful data recovery.

Are you able to recover my data?

Yep, most of the time we can!

When it comes to recovering data from a failed hard drive or solid-state drive you often get one shot at it. We have the skills, knowledge and expertise as well as the most advanced equipment available in the world to provide the safest and best possible chance at recovering your lost data. In fact, we are so confident in our expertise, that if we cannot recover your data, we do not charge you anything.

Hard disk drives can fail in many ways. Most commonly we see hard drives presenting with bad sectors, read errors, file system or partition corruption as well as damaged printed circuit boards (PCBs) and firmware problems. In pretty much all of these cases, we can recover your data.

If your hard drive is making any unusual sounds such as clicking, beeping or ticking, it almost always points to damage to the read/write heads, motor or other internal damage. These symptoms are very common and we specialise in such cases.

If the heads inside the hard drive are damaged, our success rate is typically lower. This is particularly the case with hard drives that have hit the floor from physical shock and have suffered damage to the disk platter. In cases of physical shock to your hard drive, as long as the disk platter surface is in good condition, you can usually expect a successful recovery, even when there is a motor or heads issue. In cases of severe physical damage to the platter surface, typically success rates are quite low, but you can trust that we will do our very best to recover your lost data in this case.

We would say that in most cases that hard drives have failed where there is not damage to the platter, or files have been overwritten, the data can usually be recovered with integrity.

Cases that are generally not recoverable typically involve scratched platters or overwritten data.

Free initial assessment – 1-2 business days

Once you lodge your data recovery job with us, we will perform an obligation free initial assessment. This assessment usually takes 1 to 2 business days and once complete, we will advise which one of the three stages of recovery you fall under.

Once we get the approval from you, expect a typical turnaround time of between a few days to a couple of weeks.

As we mentioned, typically when it comes to data recovery from a failed hard drive, you often get one shot at it. Please don’t risk giving your hard drive with your critical business files or precious family memories to an unprofessional or inexperienced general IT repair technician. We see time and time again attempts made at data recovery that have destroyed the customer data.

Data recovery is a specialised field of IT that requires advanced equipment, knowledge of hard drive manufacturer firmware as well as a deep understanding of how hard drives work. Trust your data with us, the professionals.

How much does data recovery cost?

Our rates start at $350 and go upwards from there depending on the nature of the recovery. Not all devices are the same, so please give us a call or submit an online enquiry for relevant pricing.  We break down our service into standard service and emergency service, depending on your needs.

So after my 14 year old 1TB hard drive with everything on it fried itself I thought my life was done, found these guys and saw their reviews were good, got in contact and were so easy to deal with, within a few days they were able to retrieve all my data and send me a new drive with all my data on it, had 1 little issue which after getting in contact with them, they were able to fix, very quick turn around over the Xmas and new years period, glad I was able to get all my files back and was a really good price to get back priceless photos and files, it saved me. Will be coming back if anything else like this happens again for me or any 1 else, A+++ service, definitely recommend!!

Absolute life savers. I was referred by our local business shop when my external hard drive died, right before tax time! Alex was incredibly helpful and communicated the whole way. Quick turn around (even to remote QLD) and definitely worth the money (which was cheap compared to the cost of losing all the data). Highly recommend.

Used these guys to recover a number of hard drives that had been corrupted and couldn’t be happier with the outcome. They were able to get so much back that I thought I had lost forever. Very professional and great at communicating what the issues were. Highly recommend!

Alex really took the time to listen to my problem and helped where others could not. My hard drive was in bad shape from a previous failed attempt with another company. Although I couldn't get all of my photos back I felt so well look after by the team. What I did get back was worth every cent. Thanks Guys

Immediately honest and reassuring, helpful and prompt. Calm in the face of my panic. I had my data back in less than 24hrs. As a mature student, the cost was a challenge, but the cost of losing some of my work was infinitely greater. An excellent service, highly recommended.

How long does the process take?

Hard drives fail in many different ways, they are mechanical in nature, have their own circuitry as well as complex firmware. The time required to recover your failed hard drive varies depending on what kind of problem it has and how it responds to the repairs we make.

If your job does not require cleanroom work, typically we can recover your data anywhere from a few days to a week. If your drive needs to go into the cleanroom for head replacement or if there is damage to the disk surface, expect a longer turnaround of up to 1 to 2 weeks. If you require a much faster turnaround time, we would recommend calling us and selecting emergency 24/7 service turn around.

How fast is the emergency service?

Put simply, emergency service allows your job to go straight to the top of the queue and we will work tirelessly 24 hours a day, seven days a week until your data is recovered. In some cases this could mean 1 to 2 days, other cases it could still take a week. There are some cases that we have repaired quickly but just simply take a very long time to image.
