| Peter - Edinburgh |
Peter is a professional photographer and due to the size of the digital photos he produces he requires a lot of storage space. Peter uses an external hard drive to store his raw image files and uses a further external hard drive for backup. This is very a sensible approach and one that would normally avoid problems like losing accidently deleted files or if one of the hard drives failed. However what happens when both external hard drives fail possibly due to malware or both coming from a faulty batch? Disaster ensues.
As your data means so much to you invest in a company that will do the job right first time.
Facing the prospect of losing a whole year’s worth of work Peter first tried a well known High Street computer store that offers amongst other things, data recovery. However they only managed to recover 20% of the total data on the drive and it came in a raw format which means the folder/file names were not intact. This makes it difficult to identify what data has actually been recovered without having to go through each file individually, a daunting task with 600+ GB of data.
Disappointed by the results Peter turned to a professional data recovery company and contacted us. After completing the free diagnostic we discovered that the partition on the hard drive was faulty and the table that indentifies the file and folder structure was corrupt. Due to our specialist knowledge and the tools we have at our disposal we were able to perform a full recovery of the drives and also keep the original file names and folder structure.
Peter was obviously happy with the results
I lost a year’s worth of data for my business after my external hard drive failed. A well known high street chain could not recover my data. Kingdom Data Recovery was the next company I called and they recovered everything in a very quick timeframe. They are professional, courteous and offer a first class service. I would highly recommend them.
Sometimes the cheaper option is not always the best one. High Street PC Repair companies may offer basic data recovery services but they usually don’t possess the knowledge and the resources a dedicated data recovery company does. In some cases you can be putting the chances of recovering your data at risk by choosing the wrong company. As your data means so much to you invest in a company that will do the job right first time.
