EMERGENCY SERVICE

Never assume your drive is completely damaged or your data is unrecoverable. Essential Data Recovery has successfully recovered data from many different types of drives and media. Take these basic steps to prevent further damage and let our years of experience handle the rest.

To maximize the recoverability of your data the best policy is to immediately stop using your computer or device. Continuing to use the drive can lead to overwriting of data and cause additional and/or permanent damage

Identification of Cause

If possible make a note of the conditions or possible cause of the problem such as:

Unusual Noises
