Common questions

My hard drive is not listed. Can you still help?

Yes. These are the most common families, but we recover every model – call us with the model number.

Can I post my drive to you?

Yes, using our insured courier service from anywhere in the UK.

Will I know what can be recovered before I pay?

Yes. You get a list of recoverable files before the recovery itself is charged.
