Hard drive repair
Getting the computer working again
A drive fault can mean a connection problem, a failing drive or damaged software. Restoring a working computer may involve replacing storage and reinstalling the operating system. That is a different job from recovering files on the original drive.
Before you agree to a repair, tell us whether your data is backed up and which files matter. We can then discuss the priorities and the appropriate next step.
Data recovery
Getting important files back
Recovery depends on the fault, encryption and the condition of the storage. Deleted files and an unreadable drive need different approaches. Recovery is not guaranteed.
If a drive is clicking, disconnecting or reporting errors, stop using it. Avoid formatting it, reinstalling Windows or saving new files to it. Physical damage may need specialist laboratory assessment, which we would discuss with you.
Before you book
Your questions, answered
Can you recover every failed hard drive?
No. Some failures need specialist equipment and some data cannot be recovered. We assess the situation and explain the options without promising a result.
Should I replace the drive or recover the files first?
Tell us which files are important before any replacement or reinstallation. Restoring a usable computer and recovering its original files are separate tasks.
What should I include in my enquiry?
Tell us the drive or device type, symptoms, what happened before the failure, whether you have a backup and whether encryption is enabled if you know. Do not send passwords in the form.
