• Q: How much does Apple data recovery cost?

  No two failure scenarios are identical, and costs can vary greatly from one case to the next. Some of the factors that affect data recovery costs include hard drive make and model, Mac OS X software version and the extent of media damage.

  However, data recovery is generally an affordable option for businesses and home computer users. Secure Data Recovery Services offers several turnaround options in order to help our clients find cost-effective solutions for their Apple devices.

• Q: How can I prevent data loss on my Apple computer?

  All digital storage devices eventually fail, so to prevent data loss, you need to back up your computer regularly.

  Newer Apple computers (Mac OS X 10.5 and later) come with Time Machine, a backup utility that can create a functional restore point for your computer on an external hard drive. We recommend using Time Machine or another data backup program to protect important files.

  If you notice signs of media damage such as clicking sounds or file corruption error messages, turn your computer off right away to prevent additional damage. Call our customer service team to set up an evaluation.

• Q: How long does the data recovery process take for Apple computers and devices?

  Turnaround times vary depending on the failure scenario and the device model. However, our teams take every possible step to prevent unnecessary downtime. Our engineers provide an accurate turnaround estimate with every price quote.

  Secure Data Recovery Services offers several turnaround options for Apple devices including 24/7/365 emergency same-day recovery. Contact our customer service team for more information.
