Recovery Process :

• Diagnostic: Each recovery case begins with a diagnostic to determine the potential for recovery and to provide a firm price-quote for your review.
• Imaging: The initial diagnosis determines whether the media is accessible to our lab equipment. If so, the first priority is to create a raw image of the data on external media.
• Logical recovery: Logical recovery uses the raw image by examining the low-level data sectors and determining what fixes to file system structures are needed to get access to the important data. In some cases the existing file system structures are missing or damaged, so that data has to be extracted directly from one or more fragments of the raw image.
• Clean room: Recovery of crashed hard drives periodically involve replacing failed or damaged components in a clean environment (Class 100) and using specialized hardware and software tools to create the raw image. Failed components typically include:
  • electronics
  • read/write heads
  • head assemblies
  • magnets & drive motor

• Once Data is Restored: Once a recovery has been successfully performed, file lists are created and data validity and integrity is checked.The recovery results will be submitted to the customer. We typically supply the recovered data on whatever medium the customer specifies such as DVD's or Hard Disk Drive.
