• Don't keep using the drive. Every write reduces the chance of full recovery.
• Don't run recovery software you Googled. Some tools write to the drive while "scanning".
• Don't open the drive yourself. A clean room is required for mechanical recoveries.
• Don't freeze it. This is a 2005 myth that destroys drives.

• Accidentally deleted files (high success rate)
• Formatted drives (very high success rate if not yet overwritten)
• Failed SSDs with controller faults
• Clicking / not-detected mechanical hard drives
• Failed RAID arrays
• Water-damaged drives
• Drives from dropped laptops

1. Free initial assessment — we plug it in carefully and tell you what is wrong
2. Fixed-price quote before any recovery work begins
3. Logical recovery (software-level) or physical recovery (component swap, clean-room work)
4. Verification — we show you a file list before you pay
5. Delivery on a new drive of your choice

• Logical recovery (deleted, formatted, corrupted): $199 – $499
• Physical recovery (clicking, not detected, failed SSD): $499 – $1,499
• Clean-room recovery (head swap on a mechanical drive): from $1,200, quoted per case

We only charge if the recovery succeeds. No data, no fee — on most recovery types.

When we return your data we will also set you up with:

• An external backup drive
• iCloud / OneDrive / Google Drive sync
• A 3-2-1 backup plan you can actually stick to

Bring failed drives to Norwood or Mount Barker, or call us — we collect across Adelaide. See computer repair.
