After recovery:

Once again, thank you for all your outstanding work in recovering our data...
We are very please with the results of the data recovery process and your amazing services in achieving those results.


Lake City Webs Henderson, Louisiana, US : Fujitsu MHT2080AT laptop

The hard drive died when I've tried to fix it. From the beginning, the laptop would not boot, but Bios could see it - I tried to repair with windows disk. I could even see the folders in command prompt. Took it out and hooked to a desktop computer with an adapter but my computer would not boot with it in there, had it set to cable select on secondary IDE but its locking up my machine for some reason. Wondering if you think you can get the data?

 

After recovery:

Ok, Looks good! Thank you!


Rescue DRL Edmonton, Alberta, Canada : Seagate ST9408114A 40 GB mobile

Laptop's drive is clicking, if computer is on. I don't need that drive to be repaired, just rescue my files with important data: photos, emails, excel and other MS Office documents.

 

After recovery:

Thanks on the great delivery effort on our last order! Awesome results!


Managment Control Alexander City, Alabama, USA : Hitachi HTS541010G9SA00 100 GB SATA laptop

The drive was removed from laptop and tested in separate enclosure. But it is failed (not powering on at all). We would like you recover all data and examine important in the 'Documents and settings' folder.

 

After recovery:

Hello Recovery team,
I'd like to let you know that we received the disks with the data and all files look just perfect. Congratulations on very well done job. We will spread around our recommendation about your services: high quality at very competitive price of $490!


Brian G., Marion, Iowa : Hitachi IC25N060ATMR04 clicking laptop

I remember shutting the laptop a bit hard the night before this happened, but that is about it. Next morning I turned computer on and got a 'Disk read error...' along with 3 distinct clicking sounds that repeat in a very regular manner. The drive has not been opened and has the original parts. I think the bad 60 GB drive was just about full, so if you don't get a full recovery, please let me know what does get recovered. Data above all: Everything in My Documents folder; My Pictures folder and sub folders is most important; Folder named 'Brian' in My Documents folder; IE Favorites; Files and folders on Desktop

 

After recovery:

I was very skeptical that you would be able to recover all or any of the information on my drive due to the clicking sound that it was making, but I was ecstatic to receive your email outlining the directory structure contained in my drive along with specific files still intact. Although this is an expensive lesson to learn, it's a small price to pay to recover all of my pictures and documents collected over the past several years. Thank you so much for your competent and reliable service. The detailed information you provided as a result of your investigation was more than enough to convince me that you could in fact recover the information. I will definitely recommend your service to others.





Laptop / Notebook Disk Data Recovery

Laptops have become popular device for personal computing and its usage is growing at a fast pace in our modern society for the reason of their mobility that happens to be its absolute advantage compare to the desktop machines. Laptops quite often are used by users to work off-site while traveling that is why they are the subjects of a lot more of software/hardware failures, danger and abuse.

 

Even though the data recovery process for laptop hard drives is similar to desktop type ones, it is yet required much more fine tools, equipment and professional skills. Our success in recovering data from laptop hard disks is up to ~96%, which speaks itself for our high professionalism and enormous experience to handle the cases where prior undertaken recovery attempts by the other recovery companies did not succeed.

In addition to all of the above, the great deal is that Data-R-Us data recovery lab provides its service for all laptop/notebook hard disk drives (2.5”, 1.8”, 1.3" and 1” disk size, ATA, SATA, MicroSata, ZIF, CEATA and other connectors) at one absolutely firm price as low as $490 (flat rate) regardless the failure issues, including the most common as:

  • Mechanical component failure (motors, head assembly, read/write heads, i.e. noisy sounds: clicking/ ticking/grinding etc.)
  • User’s Error (accidental reformatting)
  • Physical Trauma (dropped laptop, spilled water)
  • Data corruption
  • Firmware damage (power surge/failure)
  • BIOS / CMOS failure (not detected or wrongly detected by laptop)
  • And many others…

The data recovery process requires the bare hard drive only, which needs to be extracted from your laptop / notebook computer frame.

Normally, the drive's removal does not void the warrany of the computer and technically, it's a simple routine operation for the vast majority of laptops; exception is the laptops by Apple.

Refer to laptop manual, online sources, or our hard drive removal instructions.

A few notes about data safety on the laptop hard drives.

What is the best laptop drive to storage data from the point of view of Data-R-US recovery specialists?

Let's see:

Toshiba makes the most 'friendly to data recovery' laptop hard drives. Toshiba drive's heads are very delicate to the spinning disk. Sometimes, heads stick to the surface of the disk platters, and without any forced intrusions by "I know what to do dealers", or hitting the drive against the wall with the hope the heads will bounce back into parking zone, you can be pretty sure that your data are OK and can be restored at data recovery facility (clean room is a must for such failure) by an experienced engineer. At Data-R-Us we perform like procedures on everyday basis. We are fully equipped and our technicians are well trained to successfully complete data retrieval.

Other laptop hard drive brands mostly depend on the model number.

Seagate mobile drives are pretty good, unless those Momentus 5400, 100/120 Gigabyte with Apple logo on the label. General problems with those drives are internal failure of heads: dust & scratches on the disk platters.

Hitachi laptop type disks have the good recovery prognosis for 2.5-inch Travelstar drives. All models starting with "HTS541:"(HTS541616J9AT00, HTS541616J9SA00, :), "HTE7:", HTS7:", "HTS4:" and old IC25N040ATCS04 and other models of ":ATCS04" family. The only exception can be HTS548080M9AT00, it is a vicious 'heads killer', if you are the owner of one of that - your data can be in real danger.

WD laptop disks can be very hard to recover, but yet, mostly, they are recoverable. The only drawback for laptop hard disk by Western Digital - some difficulties to locate the right spare drive for parts for the certain models. The old laptop models of Fujitsu hard drives (up to 80G) are very good for recovery, on the contrary - the new ones acquire the tough problem with spare heads compatibility, or better say -incompatibly.

 

It is amazing, but from our perspective, as data recovery business - we can definitely say that it is much safe keeping / storing data on small laptop hard drives, oppose to the modern desktop drives - due to the first ones being more data recovery friendly with a better success rate. And once again, Data-R-Us recovery team is fully equipped and highly trained to retrieve data from any laptop hard drive models, regardless failure issue - any case when the data is yet recoverable.
