Typical data recovery procedure:
You receive a hard disk drive (or other faulty electronic media) enquiry from a potential customer.
STEP 2
You supply your customer with a preliminary quotation based on our recommended retail price as per our reseller pricelist.
- You could add your own mark-up should you wish - keeping in mind that if the customer approached us directly we would be quoting them our recommended retail price.
- You can also contact us (should you prefer) in order to confirm the pricing.
- The purpose of the preliminary quotation is to commit your customer to the costs associated in sending the drive to us.
STEP 3
If your customer is satisfied with the preliminary quotation you then ship the drive to us.
- In the case of server recoveries we would require:
- All disk drives in the server. The sequence (order) of these drives must be marked before being removed from the server (very important).
- If possible the Raid controller (even if faulty).
STEP 4
We receive the drive and should be able send you a written confirmation quotation via email within 2-10 working hours depending on the service option required.
STEP 5
You then send a confirmation quotation (including your reseller mark-up) to your customer who in turn supply you with a final approval (preferably in writing).
You email us confirming the final approval received.
- No data recovery work will be undertaken without us 1st having received this approval from yourself UNLESS you have marked the drive as pre-approved based on our reseller pricelist.
STEP 7
We complete the data recovery.
- This takes us on average 3-5 working days under our STANDARD recovery rate.
- We do not return the faulty recovered drive - we could however return what is left of the drive should you require.
- We will send you a report via e-mail should we not be able to recover any data.
- We will also again contact you should we not be able to recover all the data required.
- The data will be transferred to a destination drive either supplied by yourself (or your customer) or we can quote for any drive currently available
- Most drives have more than 10GB worth of data and we therefore by default quote for a destination drive.
We send you an invoice via e-mail awaiting confirmation of payment.
STEP 9
We return the data or you may arrange for collection upon receipt of payment.
OUR PRIMARY CONCERN IS TO RECOVER YOUR CUSTOMERS DATA IN FULL CONFIDENTIALITY AS FAST AND IN A GOOD CONDITION AS POSSIBLE
Packaging Instructions:

- Wrap the device using Bubble Wrap (Foam Wrap) ensuring adequate padding to prevent any movement and also to be able to absorb any impact while being transported.
- Package multiple drives with enough Bubble Wrap (Foam Wrap) so that there will be no contact between them.
- Seal the box with packing tape and mark with our shipping details and your physical return address.

Advice to give your customer facing a potential data loss situation:
- Not to make any rash decisions that may cause further damage or lead to permanent data loss.
- To switch the drive off as soon as possible especially if there are “strange noises” coming from the drive.
- Not to run any hard disk utilities or data recovery software on a noisy and/or difficult to detect or access drive.
- Not to copy or write any data to a formatted, deleted or potentially damaged drive as this may cause further damage to the data.
- Not to format or modify the partitions on a potentially faulty drive.
- Not to open the drive - hard drives are very sensitive to contamination and should only be opened in a controlled clean room environment e.g. class 100 clean room.
- We do not recommend them replacing or swapping the controller board as that may cause damage to the drives firmware programming and so hamper the possibility of recovering the data.
- The programming on most modern drives is specific to that drive despite having a matching PCB.
- Please ensure that the original PCB is fitted back onto the drive before being shipped for data recovery – that is should the controller board have been replaced.
- To observe safe handling practices eliminating further damage.
- To package the drive as if sending an egg - See also Our Shipping Instructions.
