THE DATA RECOVERY PROCESS

Once you are aware there  is a problem with your hard drive you should get  professional help immediately . The more you try to fix the device the greater the chance you are causing more damage and this is especially true if you try and open up your hard drive as this can make data recovery impossible.   The best thing you can do is resist the urge to play with the drive and call Data Recovery Perth straight away.

Using our specialized data recovery tools  we will  diagnose the problem. Once we know what the problem is, we will send you a quote. This will give you an exact cost for recovering the contents of your storage device.  As previously mentioned  data recovery is actually the process of repairing the drive and then retrieving the data. How the device has failed will determine the cost of recovery.

IT CAN MATTER WHAT SYSTEM IS ON THE DRIVE

Similarly it is important when recovering data due to accidental file deletion or reformats that the person recovering data has a deep understanding of the file systems that are used on storage devices. Knowledge of  fat32  as well as HFS on  Mac , NTFS on Windows and EXT4 Linux systems. We at Data Recovery Perth  do know the differing  file systems that exist and how they work  but you should check that is the case with your data recovery provider.

About Us

There are many companies that advertise they perform Data Recovery however very few have the requisite skills. I know this as I have had clients shop around until they can see that person has the equipment and skills required. This means They will need specialized hard drive diagnostic equipment I use Dolphin Data Labs tools. They will need soldering equipment and a hot airflow rework station. They will need specialised recovery software such as R-Studio.

Many companies charge to quote and while I fully understand why they do this we don not charge.

We only charge if your data is successfully recovered. This is true even if we have to attempt swapping heads on the problem drive.
