When your Seagate hard drive crashes, you want to have someone
who knows Seagate drives and what problems they generally have,
to work on it.
The biggest problem with your Seagate hard drive failing is, that you could be losing lots of pictures, files, or other irreplaceable data.
If your Seagate drive has crashed because of being dropped or mishandled, you could be facing internal physical damage that will require a professional that knows how to take it apart and what to do in order to get any data back.
Multiple uses by family members, creates more chances of something happening that leads to data loss. When many people are adding their data and material to the drive, it increases the chances of corruption, as the drive gets too full. Deletion or formatting of files, documents, and pictures, or viruses, and natural disasters, are all reasons for needing restoration on a Seagate hard drive.
Your only options at this point are:
- Attempt to recover the data yourself (and risk making it unrecoverable).
- Have your local PC repair shop try to recover it.
- Find a data recovery company that specializes in recovering failed Seagate hard drives.
The choice you make today can mean the difference between
getting your files back and never seeing them again!
Almost every data recovery company you find states they are the best in the industry or have the highest success rate of recovery.
Who is the judge of that, where do they come up with saying they are the best?
With so many companies out there and their claims to success, how are you supposed to choose a company?
What we do know is even though there are many good companies out there; we were built upon the foundation of honesty, integrity, and one American who was in the same place you are now and had the stubbornness to find a solution not only for him, but to help other people in the same situation.
It is not uncommon with large jobs that Kevin will be right along side the techs working on a recovery, giving them support and advice.
If a drive is unrecoverable, he will not stop until he makes sure that every avenue is exhausted for that recovery.
Once you have been quoted a price, we will honor it. Even if we get the drive and it ends up taking longer or requiring extra parts that we have to pay for, we will never charge more than we initially stated.
He works every day in our main office, located in Montana and is constantly on the phone working with our offices located throughout the US. He keeps them up to speed on what’s going on and makes sure they have the same tools and knowledge our techs in Montana have.
Our CEO, Kevin Jackson, started this company because after 10 years in another business, he suddenly lost years of financial and tax records! He started learning and working day and night for weeks, trying to recover the data he’d lost. Soon, he realized he could turn this into a business to help other people save their lost data as well. With that, he continued working day and night learning what each part of the hard drive was, what it did, and how to extract lost or damaged data from it.
Kevin grew up on a farm and learned the principles of honesty, hard work, and helping people get what they want will help you get where you want to be.
This is why we pride ourselves and really do believe when we say we are one of the best with the highest success rates of recovery in the industry.

Procedures for getting data back
This feature helps us give you a personalized service.
Once you send us your drive, it is assigned to one technician who keeps our database updated as they work on it. This way, if you have any questions while it is in our hands, all you have to do is call and one of our receptionists is able to look up your job and tell you the status.
We aim to get your data back to you as soon as possible; our general turnaround is 3-5 business days, but we do have expedited service.
Once we give you a price, it is final; we will not change or tack on other fees.
If we have to order parts, even if they are older and hard to find, we will not charge you extra for this.
This guarantees for you that you know what you’re getting and how much you’re paying.
Signs your Seagate could be failing
If any of these symptoms are apparent and you have data loss, you should shut your computer down immediately.
- Computer is extra slow to boot
- Programs are extra slow to load and run
- Periodic re-booting for no apparent reason
- Computer shows a blue or black screen upon boot up
- Error screens pop up
- You can hear clicking or beeping sounds from the drive
- Viruses
- Natural disasters
- Formatting or overwriting
- Accidentally deleting files
- Hard drive won’t mount
- Computer crashed
- OS returns unreadable or corrupt disk
- DLL is missing or corrupt
- Hard drive is not spinning
The probability of successfully restoring your data is very high if done right
MECHANICAL/PHYSICAL FAILURE
- Hard drive is clicking, beeping, making unusual sounds
- Hard drive is not recognized by system
- Hard drive is not recognized in BIOS
- Hard drive is not spinning
When you see low prices, especially for mechanically failed drives, you should be wary because it is virtually impossible to perform the kind of procedures necessary without the proper tools, equipment and knowledge.
Replacement parts alone for mechanical failures, normally cost between $100 and $500
Data recovery equipment that overcomes bad sectors and can rewrite firmware costs over $25,000.
It can take anywhere between 2 to 4 hours to replace parts, then there's time to get the drive reading, extracting the data, verifying your files and copying it off to a new hard drive. This can take from a few hours to a couple of days.
Add the expense of facilities, utilities, research and development and you see it's virtually impossible to recover mechanically failed hard drives for less than one to two thousand dollars.
