We also have free software for simple data loss events on removable storage. These programs can restore deleted data and repair corrupted files. Our suite contains software for external hard drives, media cards, and flash drives. It also includes tools for CDs and DVDs, diskettes, and removable media found in Zip, Jaz, Clik, LS-240, SyQuest, or Sparq systems. They are a viable option for cases with a clear cause of data loss from logical errors. Here are some tips for successful use:

Stop recording data on the CD, floppy disk, or other media. Saving new data to the media could overwrite stored files.
Inspect the media. Running software on damaged media can worsen data loss. Contact a data recovery service to retrieve files if there are signs of physical damage.
If safe, use the buttons below to install the program to a PC with Windows 2000 or later.
Connect the media to the computer and scan it. Save recoverable data to a different device or thumb drive than the affected media.

Still do not see lost files? Do not give up. Your storage might have a more severe issue that our experts can resolve. Call us or request help to start a case and reclaim important data.

Note: Pick the appropriate program from our suite. Use the Hard Drive tool for external HDDs. SD cards and USB drives require Flash. We designed the CD and DVD software for optical media. Standard floppy disks should use the tool for Diskettes. More recent legacy systems require Removable Media.

Perfect Recovery

We had an SD card for a camera that got corrupted and stopped working. We feared that we may have lost thousands of vacation photos we had taken on that card. We turned to Secure Data Recovery Services and we''re glad we did. The staff was friendly, informative, and patient when helping me through the process on getting our data back. We ended up getting back all our photos from the SD card. 100% would recommend them for data recovery services.

Extremely happy with overall experience

Scott and his Associates were very professional and quick to respond to my emails and phone calls. I am not very ''computer savvy'' and was feeling overwhelmed and anxious when I found that my flash drive (that hadn''t been backed up in quite some time!) broke. Scott was very patient with me and walked me through everything, explaining in layman''s terms, so I understood. I live in a very rural location and there are no local data recovery services available. A friend at a local Telecommunications corporation recommended Secure Data Recovery. They were able to recover all of my files quickly and efficiently. I would highly recommend Secure Data Recovery for any Data retrieval needs.
