Frequently asked questions
What’s the success rate for data recovery?
Overall success rate is 85% for cases we deem recoverable. Deleted files and logical issues have highest success. Physical damage varies by severity.
How long does data recovery take?
Simple logical recovery can be same day. Physical recovery typically 3-7 days. Complex cases may take 2-3 weeks depending on damage extent.
Is my data kept confidential?
Absolutely. We sign NDAs for businesses and maintain strict confidentiality. All data is securely handled and deleted from our systems after transfer.
Can you recover from clicking hard drives?
Often yes. Clicking usually indicates mechanical failure. We assess whether recovery is feasible and provide honest recommendations about likelihood.
What if you can’t recover my data?
On standard logical recovery, no recovery means no fee (only assessment fee applies). For complex recovery, we’ll explain what’s preventing recovery.
Do you recover from SSDs?
Yes, though SSDs are more challenging than HDDs due to TRIM and wear-leveling. Quick action after data loss is critical for SSD recovery.
Can you recover ransomware encrypted files?
We can recover the files, but decryption depends on the ransomware variant. For some variants, decryption tools exist. We never recommend paying ransoms.
