I wanted to tell you about some successful data recovery projects we have undertaken recently, i have a degree in Forensic Computing so i should know what im doing.

USB Memory Stick Recovery

Recently a client came to us asking for help to recover her data from a usb memory stick. The memory stick had become damaged after the socket which usually connects the device to the computer had become detached from the circuit board. The client required some of the coursework off the memory stick within a few days of the damage.

We took apart the memory stick and very carefully soldered (please dont try this at home, a slight slip and all data would be permanently lost) 4 wires from a standard USB cable to the circuit board. All data(600mb) was successfully recovered from the memory stick and delivered back to the customer on a CD..

Apple Mac Data Recovery
A long term customer of ours phoned to say they were having a clean out on the Mac and in the process had transferred data to a new user account. They then deleted the old user account. Within a few days the client discovered they had not copied the data from iphoto and all photos of a project she had taken documenting a year long project were gone!!!

The client uses the mac for a lot of audio recording and thus has large files on the machine, and a few days had past so i didn’t hold out much hope for any sort of recovery.

To cut a long story short using our in house expertise we recovered over 10000 deleted image files from the machine, the most were OS icons etc, but also lying in wait were the deleted project images. Job Done another happy customer and a message from me.

PLEASE BACKUP YOUR DATA ….. Give us a call if you want to know how. Imagine this tomorrow your computer Hard drive fails completely and NOTHING is recoverable. ALL OF YOUR DATA IS LOST …. can your business survive ? have you lost valuable family photos … backup it takes a few minutes a week and saves lots of pain.!
