If your hard drive
has crashed, failed, is clicking, grinding,
or malfunctioning, we strongly recommend that
you turn it off, now! To prevent permanent
loss of your data, you should only let professionally
trained data recovery technicians work on your
hard drive or RAID system.
Over 12 years successfully recovering data
from single hard drive PCs and servers to complex,
multi-drive RAID arrays, including Dell,
HP, IBM, Compaq, Gateway Servers and operating
systems, Microsoft
SQL server and Exchange
server. Our proven hard
drive recovery methods, state-of-the-art
equipment and cutting-edge utilities enable
our data recovery engineers to recover your
files as quickly as possible. |

| Disassembly
of your hard drive may be required in order
for our data recovery technicians to analyze
and diagnose the extent of the damage to your
hard drive. In a clean room environment, we
remove the covers and seals from the hard drive
so we can work on, or replace internal components
while maintaining most manufacturers’ warranties.
We recover data from all computer systems
including: laptop, notebook and desktop hard
drives. We recover and rebuild data from hardware
and software RAID: 0, 1, 5, 50, 10 and most
RAID variants. Some of the most common include.

We begin by identifying and replacing faulty internal
parts like heads, re-writing firmware, performing
platter swaps, recalibrating and realigning the file
structures and restore as much of your data as possible.
Hard drives that are clicking, or making unusual
sounds, go directly to the clean room bench where
the PCB controller, heads and platter surfaces are
checked and tested for scratches, scoring, correct
calibration, ohm readings and failed chips.
ROM chips and firmware are checked. The spindle
motor is tested for proper rotation, speed, alignment
and frozen or damaged bearings. Servo mechanisms
that identify the parameters and structure of the
hard drive are tested to determine whether they have
been damaged or overwritten. Faulty parts are replaced
and correct firmware is loaded. Once your hard drive
is brought to a state of readiness a sector-by-sector
image is created. After the imaging process is complete
your data is recovered, your critical files are checked
for integrity and your data is saved to a new 80GB
or 250GB external hard drive.
Recovery is now complete and your data recovery
advisor will provide you with a list of recoverable
files for your review and then make payment arrangements
and get your recovered files to you. See the data
recovery methods ADR uses to recover hard drives.
