FAQ
Am I guaranteed all my files?
We cannot guarantee all your files recovered, we can’t guarantee any files are recovered. It depends on the state of the device.
Would it be safe to attempt recovery of files myself?
You can attempt but you may reduce the lifespan of the drive depending on the issue.
If the parts inside are failing the drive will get slower and slower which may cost you more in the long run to get the files recovered.
If its an SSD drive (the one without moving parts) and you have lost some files, keeping the computer on can initiate a command called TRIM which will clear all deleted space and can make the files unrecoverable.
Do I have to pay for having retrieved nothing?
We
How long can it take to retrieve the files?
It can take anywhere from a day to a few weeks.
Will my files come back as they were?
So, they won’t have any proper filenames or descriptions and you will have to sort through them to find the ones that are important to you.
Also, they may come back as partial files, so only parts of the file will be seen. We may be able to reconstruct some of these images depending on the state of data retrieved.
Where will you store my files?
We can store them wherever you would like them stored but it’s not recommended to put them back on the same device that is faulty.
We can supply an external hard drive to store your data for an extra price or you may want to give us your computer or an external hard drive you may have to use.
There's no power or any vibration or sorts in the hard drive what should I do?
We can attempt to access the hard drive and recover information for you as it could be the cable, PCB board ,USB Enclosure or connection issue with the computer.
If its more serious it will require further work to retrieve.
I spilt liquid on my laptop
Depending on the type of hard drive you have in your computer these cases can be difficult.
If your computer was off during the spillage, keep it off. If it was on during the spillage don’t try to start it anymore as it can cause further damage.
We may be able to remove the water elements from your computers electrical parts by taking it apart, if the computer was off and kept off, we have a higher chance of recovering the computer.
Covered hard drives make it easier to recover. Laptops which have an uncovered SSD drive like an M SATA or M2 NVME may be more difficult as the water can contact the circuit and short it out.
If the case after cleaning the drive of the liquid elements the drive still doesn’t work we would need to get the data extracted by other means.
Is it possible to recover deleted photos from my phone?
It depends on the model of phone, software that is running on the phone and what types of services you have activated, also the length of time since they were deleted.
The newest model android phones if the photos have been permanently deleted or deleted through remote erase may not be possible to recover as to the way the memory works in the phone.
We provide our data recovery services to the suburbs of Nillumbik
We are in Diamond Creek, so our main goal is to provide our services to people living in the Nillumbik suburbs: Panton Hill, Hurstbridge, Wattle Glen, Cottles Bridge, Watsons Creek, Smiths Gully, Arthurs Creek, St Andrews, Nutfield Strathewen, Kangaroo Ground, Christmas Hill, Isle of Bends, and others.
If you live outside Nillumbik we can still help but our data recoveries are drop off only (no onsite work for data recoveries because of the length of time it can take) so might be a fair distance for you to travel.
