Data recovery before you reformat

When software recovery is enough — and when the platters or NAND need a clean room.

Difficulty: Moderate · ~45 min
  1. Stop writing to the drive

    Every boot risks overwriting deleted files. Pull the drive or boot from external media when possible.

  2. Try read-only tools

    Linux live USB + ddrescue or file-carving tools for accidental formats — only if the drive still spins or enumerates.

  3. Clicking or not detected

    Mechanical failure needs a clean bench. We quote imaging before deep recovery — no flat-rate miracles.

  4. Get help

    Book a Repair with the symptom and what happened before the failure.
