Find a professional data recovery technician near you

Budget: $650 (negotiable depending on experience and recovery requirements) Looking for an experienced data recovery specialist to recover files from my WD My Passport external hard drive. The drive powers on and makes mechanical noises, but is no longer recognised by Windows or Disk Management. I've already taken it to a professional data recovery company who diagnosed a faulty read/write head and quoted $1,200 for recovery. The drive contains important video footage and editing project files from a film production that cannot easily be replaced. I'm seeking a more affordable quote from someone with genuine experience recovering mechanically damaged hard drives. Requirements: Experience with WD My Passport mechanical hard drives Proper clean-room facilities and equipment for head replacement Ability to recover large video files and editing projects Clear explanation of recovery likelihood and costs Transparent pricing, including any upfront fees Preference for payment upon successful recovery Happy to drop off the hard drive anywhere around Sydney. Please provide details of your experience, recovery process, facilities and estimated total cost. Please only respond if you have professional mechanical HDD recovery experience. I'm not looking for standard recovery software or troubleshooting.

Needing to recover files from a hardrive

Hi, I’m looking for a quote for data recovery only from an M2 MacBook Air. It had liquid damage and the screen, keyboard and trackpad no longer work, although it still makes a startup sound. I don’t need the Mac repaired — I only want to recover my documents, especially my pastry recipes/work files, and transfer them to an external drive. What would be the cheapest option for this? Thanks!

I bought an osmo pocket 4 (content camera) recently. Everything was on internal storage. I went to transfer to SD card so hit the ‘adjust internal storage’ not knowing this would clear everything. Looking for someone to plug to laptop and recovery using data recovery software. Has some of videos and photos from a recent trip! Thanks

I have multiple external hard drives. I believe some of them aren’t working or I’m not sure what’s wrong with them and I have a broken MacBook. I want to purchase a new MacBook, recover as much data from the hard drives as possible and then consolidate the last five years onto the new Mac and the rest onto an archived hard drive.

My external hard drive has stopped working. I want to get its data restored to a new hard drive

Quote wanted. Need data recovery from portable hard drive. I haven't used it in 6 months, but I plugged it into my laptop and it didn't show or register it was connected or in files. Important and irreplaceable documents, photos, videos and music.

Drive still mounts but I can't copy files off of it. It's a 16 tb drive.

I’m looking for someone with experience in Apple Photos, iCloud Photos, photo metadata (EXIF), OneDrive and photo library reconstruction. This is NOT a standard data recovery or phone repair job. I still have my files. The issue is rebuilding my photo library correctly. After a previous account issue, I exported my old iCloud Photos into multiple ZIP files which are stored on my laptop and OneDrive. During the recovery process I imported some of them incorrectly, resulting in many photos and videos showing import/download dates instead of their original capture dates. Some metadata has been lost, particularly for downloaded photos and videos (including Snapchat exports), while other folders still contain correct metadata. I now have: • Multiple iCloud Photos ZIP exports • OneDrive copies • Laptop copies • Current iPhone/iCloud Photos library • Duplicate versions of some files with different metadata My goal is to rebuild ONE chronological Apple Photos library combining my old recovered photos with my current iPhone photos while preserving as much original metadata as possible. Ideally I need someone who can: • Assess the current library before making changes • Identify the best/original copy of duplicate files • Preserve original dates wherever possible • Recover metadata if available • Remove duplicates where appropriate • Recommend the safest import process • Rebuild the Apple Photos library into chronological order This is a very sentimental project and I do not want any files deleted, overwritten or imported until the source folders have been properly assessed. Please only apply if you have experience with Apple Photos, iCloud photo libraries, metadata/EXIF, digital asset management or similar work. Please let me know your relevant experience, whether you would work from copies rather than my originals, and provide an estimate for an initial assessment before any reconstruction work begins.

Fee is negotiable. I dropped my external hard drive and now it will not connect to my laptop. If possible I want to data on it transferred to my laptop.
