Hard Drive Data Recovery – Pricing and Procedures

In short

Data loss is stressful, but in 90% of cases, files can be saved if you don't worsen the situation. Learn our pricing and safe procedures.

  • First name the problem and the goal.
  • Then outline a simple step-by-step plan.
  • Each step needs an owner and a deadline.
  • Track results — without numbers it stays opinion.

Most users only remember about backups when their drive stops working. If you're in this situation, stay calm – chaotic actions can permanently destroy your files.

⚠️ Rule #1: Don't DIY!

Disconnect power immediately. Do not install data recovery software on the same drive you lost data from (you will overwrite it). Never open a mechanical hard drive yourself outside a cleanroom.

How much does data recovery cost?

The price depends directly on the type of damage:

  • Logical damage: Formatted drive, deleted partition. Relatively quick and affordable.
  • Electronic damage: Burned PCB controller, short circuit. Requires micro-soldering and donor parts.
  • Physical damage: Dropped HDD (clicking head). Requires opening in a laminar flow cabinet and head transplant. The most difficult and expensive.

FAQ

How much does the media diagnosis cost?

Standard logical and electronic diagnosis is free. We provide an exact quote for data recovery only after this assessment.

Can data be recovered from an SSD?

Yes, although the process differs from HDDs. SSDs often require direct work with NAND chips. If the TRIM command hasn't permanently erased the data, chances are high.
