Accidentally deleted important files, emptied the recycle bin, or formatted the wrong drive? In most cases your data is still physically present on the storage media until it is overwritten. We use specialist forensic tools to scan your drive sector-by-sector and recover deleted documents, photos, videos, and databases — even after a full format.
Common Scenarios:
- Files permanently deleted from recycle bin
- Accidentally formatted hard drive or USB
- Lost files after Windows reinstallation
- Partition accidentally deleted or corrupted
- Overwritten files or lost folder structures
Mechanical hard drives contain precision moving parts that can fail without warning. Clicking, grinding, or beeping noises indicate a head crash or motor failure. We recover data from drives that are no longer detected by your computer, have suffered head crashes, or show signs of platter damage — using specialist imaging tools designed for degraded media.
Common Scenarios:
- Drive making clicking or grinding noises
- Hard drive not spinning up at all
- Drive not detected in BIOS or Disk Management
- Extremely slow read speeds or freezing
- Bad sectors causing file access errors
SSDs fail differently to traditional hard drives — there are no moving parts, but controller failures, firmware corruption, and NAND flash degradation can make your data inaccessible overnight. We use chip-level reading tools and firmware-patching techniques to recover data from dead SSDs, including SATA, NVMe, and M.2 form factors.
Common Scenarios:
- SSD suddenly not detected by computer
- Drive appears as wrong size (e.g. 0MB or 8MB)
- Firmware corruption preventing boot
- TRIM-related data loss after deletion
- SSD read-only mode or write protection
Floods, burst pipes, spilled drinks, or house fires can devastate your storage devices — but the data inside is often recoverable. We carefully clean and dry affected components, repair corroded circuitry, and image the storage media before any further degradation occurs. Even drives submerged in water or exposed to extreme heat can yield recoverable data.
Common Scenarios:
- Hard drive or laptop submerged in water
- Flood-damaged external drives or NAS
- Coffee or liquid spill on laptop
- Smoke or heat damage from fire
- Corroded connectors or circuit boards
Your phone holds irreplaceable photos, messages, contacts, and documents. When your phone is dead, has a smashed screen, or has suffered water damage, accessing that data can feel impossible. We recover data from iPhones and Android devices by repairing the device just enough to extract your files — even when the phone itself is beyond economic repair.
Common Scenarios:
- Phone completely dead and won't power on
- Smashed screen with no display output
- Water-damaged phone not responding
- Phone stuck in boot loop or bricked
- Need data from old or broken handset
RAID arrays and NAS devices are designed for redundancy — but multiple drive failures, controller malfunctions, or failed rebuilds can bring the entire array down. We recover data from RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, and 10 configurations, including Synology, QNAP, and custom server setups. We rebuild the array virtually and extract your data without risking further damage.
Common Scenarios:
- Multiple drives failed in RAID array
- RAID rebuild failed or interrupted
- NAS device not booting or inaccessible
- RAID controller failure or corruption
- Accidental RAID reconfiguration or initialisation
