Data Backup and Hard Drive Recovery

Although modern computer equipment is generally very reliable, is does sometimes fail. Hard disks are more prone to failure than most other computer components because they have many mechanical parts (and not just electronics).

Remember that your hard disk contains all of your personal data much of which cannot be replaced if it is lost. It is vital to ensure that you are prepared for the chance of a hard disk failure. This involves taking regular backups of your data and being able to recover data should your drive fail.

Data Backup

It is surprising, considering the increasing reliance people place on their electronic data, how few people keep adequate and regular backups of their data.

We do backups as well onto a variation of formats, including CD and DVD.

Hardisk Data Recovery

• BIOS error when you start your computer
• No sound of the drive 'spinning-up' when you start your computer
• Increase in noise level or making unusual noises
• Frequent requests from your computer to run scandisk/chkdisk when you start your computer

If you suspect that your disk may have failed (or be failing) power down your machine immediately. If you continue to use a failing disk more damage may be done and the chances of being able to recover data are lowered.

Contact us to arrange for data recovery from your disk. We can recover data from most commonly used types of drives including, IDE, SATA, SCSI, and external USB or firewire drives.
