Frequently Asked Questions About Our Data Recovery Services

You should always trust your data to a certified, professional data recovery provider with an established reputation. Look for a company with a certified Cleanroom. Ask about data recovery technology and security credentials; make sure that the provider's engineering team has sufficient experience with your device type.

It is also important to ask about recovery rates and billing policies. Most reputable providers offer some sort of no recovery, no charge policy. Secure Data Recovery Services never processes a service charge if we cannot recover client data, and we offer excellent success rates for dozens of different types of digital devices. As an industry leader, we give you a reliable resource when data loss occurs.

In order to recover data from damaged media, engineers need years of training and dozens of specialized tools. No two failure scenarios are exactly alike, and our teams need to create individual plans for every case.

Many data recovery tools are fairly expensive and technically complex. For instance, Secure Data Recovery Services was the first company to establish a certified Class 10 ISO 4 Cleanroom, a state-of-the-art environment optimized for media repair procedures.

Data loss scenarios vary greatly from case to case. By evaluating your media, we can provide a price quote and turnaround estimate before performing data recovery procedures.

When you send your media to any of our offices, you can be rest assured that your data will remain confidential.

The only way to prevent data loss is to regularly back up your media. Set up a regular backup schedule. If possible, you should perform offsite backups and check your data occasionally. Important data should be protected with multiple backups.

If your media fails, turn it off. Do not run any software on your system or attempt to repair your media. Call our team to discuss your next steps.
