Hard drive recovery near Bala Cynwyd

Bala Cynwyd customers can bring unreadable hard drives and failed external backups to our Manayunk intake shop across the Schuylkill.

From the City Avenue side of Bala Cynwyd or elsewhere in the neighbourhood, keep the drive off until intake. Ardmore and other Main Line customers also drop off and collect recovered files in Manayunk.

A failed hard drive is not a lost hard drive. We log your drive, note the folders you need most, and ship it insured to our partnered recovery facility, where it's imaged sector by sector and the recovery is done from the copy.

Deleted files, accidental formats, corrupted file systems, external drives that stopped mounting, dead circuit boards, clicking drives and drives that will not spin: the diagnostic identifies the failure before you approve the recovery.

Read the full hard drive data recovery guide.

What to do right now

  • Power it down. A clicking, grinding or repeatedly spinning-up drive is damaging itself every second it runs.
  • Don't run recovery software on the failed drive. Writing anything to it can overwrite the files you want back.
  • Don't open the drive. Platters are ruined by a single fingerprint or dust particle.
  • Bring the whole device if the drive is inside a laptop, desktop or external enclosure. We'll remove it safely.
