HDD Data Recovery
As of 2024, HDDs still store most of the world’s data, which makes hard drive recovery more important than ever. Our engineers have the technical knowledge and skills to reverse data loss on any hard drive. Whether it’s an external hard drive or a disk in a workstation or data center, we are here to help. Our team also continues to innovate and evolve alongside new storage and recording technologies. That research means we can adapt to industry trends and satisfy your hard drive recovery needs. Or even develop a custom solution for unique cases with rare drives or exclusive file formats.
SSD Data Recovery
We also provide SSD recovery for computers with a solid-state drive (SSD) as the primary storage device. While NAND flash storage offers more performance for system drives in desktops and laptops, retrieving data from SSDs requires expertise. Our engineers have high-tech soldering stations to fix electronic components and forensic-grade software to gain low-level access. We have resolved data loss on thousands of SSDs across every make, cell type, form factor, interface, and file system. Choose SSD specialists to handle these complex recoveries and return your lost data.
Partnerships With Major Manufacturers
Secure Data Recovery partners with the biggest storage brands and tech companies to assist you best. These close partnerships often supply authentic parts or resources that lead to better outcomes. Plus, in many cases, our hard drive recovery service doesn’t void your warranty, so you can still obtain a replacement. When a digital disaster happens, you want a certified vendor with a track record of trusted results. We meet the highest standards of the largest names in the industry. You can share their confidence that our proven methods will restore your data. Our experience with these companies spans hundreds of hard drive models, from modern disks to legacy media. Here’s a small selection of our partners.
Hard Drive Failure
No hard drive is immune to unexpected failures or data loss. Hard drive failures occur because of physical damage, mechanical breakdowns, and logical issues. Each type covers several data loss scenarios. Some failures have clear warning signs, like hard drive clicking and beeping. Others are more difficult to detect. The following list represents the most common disk failures in hard drive recovery:
- Deletion
- Formatting
- File Corruption
- Encryption
- Ransomware
- Platter Damage
- PCB Damage
- Firmware Damage
- Water Damage
- Fire Damage
- Head Crash
- Motor Failure
- Bearing Failure
- Actuator Failure
- Stiction
Shut down the computer and hard drive upon receiving read errors or noticing a potential failure. Continued use could cause further damage to the disk.
Don’t lose hope if your hard drive fails. Sudden data loss does not have to become permanent. Our hard drive recovery specialists can reclaim what matters most from your device.
HDD Repair for Damaged and Defective Drives
Failed hard drives often require HDD repair to salvage data stored on their magnetic platters. Our hard drive repair experts have cutting-edge tools and thousands of donor parts. We also have a Class 10 ISO 4 cleanroom, which allows fewer particles per cubic foot than other labs in the industry. This infrastructure allows us to deliver hard drive recovery solutions in cases with severe physical damage, corrosion, or electrical failure. We can restore a damaged hard drive to a working condition, extract data from the disk, and transfer files to new media.
We are prepared to repair your hard drive. Whether you need us to safely replace the read/write heads with a comb or transplant an entire assembly.

-
How much does hard drive recovery cost?
Costs vary based on the time investment required to recover your data. Dozens of factors impact the difficulty of a case. Therefore, we provide free diagnostics as part of our hard drive recovery service. Once our technicians determine the cause of data loss and the steps to restore files, we present a free quote. You can choose whether to proceed when you have the case details. If we cannot retrieve your data, then you pay nothing.
-
Can you recover data from a hard drive with physical damage?
Yes. We can restore data on hard drives with damaged platters, read/write heads, and PCBs. Our engineers can also recover data from a failed disk with mechanical wear. We even have experience extracting data from HDDs with fire and water damage following natural disasters. Whatever the issue, our team has the equipment and expertise to repair hard drives and recover stored data.
-
Do you retrieve data from SSDs and RAID configurations as well?
Yes. We also recover files from SSDs in desktops and laptops or hard drives in disk arrays. Like HDDs, our experts handle a range of failures on these storage devices and systems, from physical damage to ransomware. We can help restore your data in almost any circumstance.
-
Will my data remain confidential?
Absolutely. We store recovered files on a closed network, encrypt data at rest with advanced algorithms, and restrict access. We won’t see the contents of your files unless you explicitly ask our engineers to verify the data. In addition, we follow U.S. Department of Defense standards to wipe all backups within 14 days of recovery. As the first data recovery service with SSAE 18 credentials, our commitment to protecting your privacy is unwavering. Trust us to ensure your personal or private data stays that way.
-
How will you return my recovered data?
Our support staff will cover all return options. In most cases, we send your recovered files back to you on an encrypted external drive. We can also transfer data over secure FTP servers or use your preferred media.
-
Is free data recovery software an option?
Sometimes. Free data recovery software is an excellent choice for simple cases of logical data loss, such as accidental deletion. These tools are designed to detect deleted data in the disk’s free space and restore files to another device. However, hard drive recovery software has limits. It cannot address data loss caused by physical damage, mechanical failure, or significant file corruption. An engineer is the most reliable option for recovering essential data in those instances.
If you want to explore software solutions, SecureRecovery for Hard Drives® is a free tool for all types of disks. The program is easy to use and compatible with Windows 11, 10, 8, 7, Vista, XP, and 2000. It supports most NTFS and FAT file systems. The software will restore common file types and folder structure.
Note: Improper usage could lead to permanent data loss. Save the tool to a different drive than the one with lost files to avoid overwriting. Assess the value of data before proceeding.
