Looking for Data Recovery Software?

RestoreMyData often get calls after people use over the counter data recovery utilities. Several disk utilities provides excellent preventative maintenance and fix minor problems. Unfortunately, installing data recovery programs can result in permanent overwrites, corrupt or destroy recoverable lost data, business files or pictures, etc.

Why Take the Risk with your Data Recovery?

At "RestoreMyData" We perform data recovery and protect your data. Please prevent your data loss by following our advice.

Physical Disk Failure Tips

Repairing physically failed hard drives are quite complex. RestoreMyData has extensive experience with failed hard drives. Occasionally, we receives calls from potential clients after they have read articles and attempted to swap a hard drive logic board in order to get their drive to work again. Our findings indicate their success rate using this procedure is less than 1 percent.

RestoreMyData can not emphasize this enough.

DO NOT SWAP THE LOGIC BOARD
Many things can go wrong trying this procedure.

Our best advice to you is:

  • Do not swap your logic board!
  • Do not disassemble your hard drive!

Logical Disk Failure Tips

Repairing logically impaired drives are often time consuming. Computer hard drive failures can occur if the logical failure resulted from a physically failing hard disk. Any hope of a user avoiding a data recovery service typically requires the user copy as much data as possible before the hard drive fails. Assume this is your last opportunity to access your data on the hard drive. If the data transfer seems non-responsive, hangs or is very slow, then we highly suggest you take the following precautions:

Turn your computer off and remove any Ethernet connections.

  • Do not attempt to restart your computer.
  • Do not format your hard drive.
  • Do not download anything!
  • Do not run scan disk.
  • Do not run disk defragmentation.
  • Do not run Check Disk.
  • Avoid using third party recovery software.
  • Call Us - We Can Help!

This last step may ultimately improve your chances of a successful file recovery and avoid an expensive clean room recovery service.
