Hard Disk Drive Data Recovery Services
Over the years, the storage capacity and reliability of hard disk drives (HDD) has increased dramatically to meet the demands of modern operating systems. Unfortunately hard disks fail just the same as any other electro mechanical device - or of course, accidents happen. The main problem now though, is that you have lost all your data.
We are able to recover data from almost any hard disk drive failure and get you back up and running as quickly as possible.
Data recovery write off? ... not necessarily
We have been able to recover data from hard disk drives where it had been considered a write-off by other data recovery companies. Examples include hard drives severely damaged by fire or flood, laptop computers dropped down stairs or run over by a car, you name it, we have probably seen it!
Data recovered from all hard drive types
We are also able to recover data from all manufacturers and types of hard disks, including internal drives (ATA, SATA, SCSI, laptop) and external hard disk drives (USB and Firewire).
Hard disk drive manufacturers we recover data from include Compaq, Connor, DEC, Dell, Digital, Freecom, Fujitsu, Hewlett Packard, Hitachi, IBM, JTS, Lacie, Magnetic Data Technologies, Maxtor, Micropolis, Miniscribe, NEC, Nikimi, Quantum, Samsung, Seagate, Toshiba and Western Digital.
Free diagnosis, no data recovery, no fee
All data recovery work undertaken by MjM is under a Free diagnosis and a no recovery no-fee policy. If we can't recover your data, then there is no fee for you to pay.
If your hard disk drive (HDD) has lost data or stopped working STOP and contact us now.
Specialist Services
We have Specialist services for drives that show specific symptoms of failure. Those listed below have specific firmware related issues.
Maxtor hard disk drive data recovery
When powering up the computer, the hard disk will either not show in the BIOS at all or show one as one of the following Aliases instead of its original model number. Such as - Maxtor Athena, Nike, N40P, Ares64, Romulus, Calypso, Proxima, Gala, Rigel, Vulcan and others. ( more info about our Maxtor data recovery services)
Maxtor have a wide range of drives, and within each range there are the different drive sizes.
Fujitsu hard disk drive data recovery
Fujitsu hard disks are generally reliable drives. However, with the MPG and MPF series of drives, we noticed a significant rise in the number of drives requiring data recovery.
As soon as the drives started arriving, our research department set to work on writing software and developing advanced techniques to resolve the issue. We have recovered over 600 of these drives using our in house procedures. Many other data recovery companies send their Fujitsu hard drives to us to recover when they are unable to. ( more info about our Fujitsu data recovery services)
Western Digital hard disk drive data recovery
These are probably the most common drives and are generally quiet and reliable, however we have seen a small percentage of these drives failing due to system area corruption that we have managed to recreate by power cycling the drive rapidly. We believe that this is not a manufacturing problem.
We have developed in-house software tools and techniques to recover data from drives with this and other system area, electronic and mechanical problems. Our overall data recovery rate for Western Digital drives is better than 80% ( more information about our Wester Digital data recovery services)
We can carry out data recovery from all models of Western Digital hard drives.
Toshiba laptop hard drive data recovery
Some models of Toshiba laptop drives appear to be suffering from seized, slow or failing motors. The symptoms of failure are that the drive will make horrendous screeching noises just before failing, this is the fluid bearing starting to seize. Other noises they make sound like loud grinding or rattling and finally no noise at all or very quiet 'creaking' noises when the motor has completely seized. We are able to perform data recovery on all Toshiba hard disks with seized motors and we have a very high success rate. Contact us for more information.
The technology we developed for this particular problem has also enabled us to do data recovery on most other manufacturers' hard drives with seized motors.
