External Hard Drive Data Recovery at Creative IT, Central London

Lost files on Expansion Portable & Desktop? We recover data from Expansion Portable & Desktop in our Central London lab, using PC-3000 and, when the device has to be opened, our Class 100 clean room. You get a free evaluation and a fixed quote first.

Problems we recover from

  • Clicking, beeping or buzzing noises
  • Drive dropped or knocked while running
  • Not detected, or detected with 0 bytes
  • 'You need to format the disk' or RAW file system
  • Broken USB socket or burnt USB board after the wrong power adapter
  • WD encrypted drives where the USB board has failed
  • Very slow access, freezing when opened
  • Deleted files or accidentally formatted drive

What to do now

  • Stop using it straight away.
  • Don't run CHKDSK, Disk Utility or recovery software on a drive that is noisy or slow.
  • Don't open it, and don't format or initialise it.

How the recovery works

  1. Free evaluation to find the fault (logical, firmware or physical).
  2. Fixed quote before any work starts.
  3. Safe imaging with PC-3000, in the clean room if needed. We only ever work on the copy.
  4. Your data back on a new drive, checked with you first.

Prices

  • Logical recovery: from £79 + VAT
  • Firmware recovery: from £145 + VAT
  • Physical recovery in the clean room: from £195 + VAT

RAID, NAS and server recoveries are quoted after the free evaluation. No data, no fee on eligible recoveries.
