Common questions

Can you recover data from a failed PNY CS-series & XLR8?

In most cases, yes. Most failed SSDs still hold their data. We work with controller-specific tools; drives with hardware encryption must be recovered through the original controller.

Where do I find my SSD model number?

Look at the label on the SSD itself, or check Device Manager / System Information on a working computer.

Is my data kept private?

Yes. We access it only for the recovery and securely delete our copies afterwards.
