Common questions
Data Recovery Assessment Guide — FAQs
A reliable data-recovery price usually requires assessment of the storage, failure type and recovery path. Any assessment or recovery charge is explained before paid work begins.
Not always. Recovery depends on the storage type, deletion or failure mode, encryption, device condition and what happened after the loss. We assess the situation before describing the likely path.
Recovery is not guaranteed. Charges depend on the agreed assessment and recovery scope, and any charge for an attempt or specialist work is explained and approved before it begins.
Stop unnecessary use of the affected storage and avoid installing recovery software or saving new files to it. If the device is clicking, liquid-damaged, repeatedly disconnecting or otherwise unstable, power it down and seek assessment advice before further attempts.
Possibly, but it cannot be promised from symptoms alone. Clicking sounds, liquid damage or impact can require specialist assessment, and the recovery path depends on the device, storage, damage and encryption.
