Data Recovery & Backup FAQ

Can you recover deleted files?

In many cases, yes — if the data hasn't been overwritten. The sooner you call, the better the chances. Stop using the drive immediately to improve recovery odds.

Can you recover files from a dead hard drive?

If the drive spins up, I can usually recover data. For drives with physical damage (clicking, grinding), you'll need a cleanroom service — I'll point you to a reputable one.

What backup solution do you recommend?

For most people, a combination of an external hard drive for local backup plus a cloud service gives the best protection. I set up both and make sure they run automatically.

How much does data recovery cost?

$35 diagnostic, $65/hr for recovery work. Simple recoveries take 1-2 hours. Complex cases may take longer. I'll give you a clear estimate before starting.
