Direct-to-Lab Engineering

Big box stores just ship your drive away to a third party. We are the lab. Your device stays with our senior engineers in Fredericksburg.

Frequently Asked Questions.

We operate on a transparent, flat-rate pricing model. Costs depend on the device type and physical damage severity, not the amount of data. You receive a firm quote after our free lab evaluation. No hidden fees. If we can't recover your target data, you pay nothing under our "No Data, No Fee" guarantee.

Our policy means exactly that. If your device has suffered catastrophic platter scoring or total NAND degradation making recovery scientifically impossible, we close the ticket and you are not charged for the recovery attempt. We only get paid when we succeed.

Absolutely. We operate under strict NDA and HIPAA-compliant protocols. Our cleanroom is physically secured, and recovered data is stored on encrypted, offline staging servers before being transferred to your secure return media. We automatically purge your data from our systems 14 days after successful delivery.

Yes. Clicking or beeping indicates a mechanical failure, usually the read/write heads or spindle motor. DO NOT power on the drive, as this can permanently score the platters. Send it immediately to our ISO-certified cleanroom where we can safely rebuild the mechanical components and extract the raw data.

Yes. We specialize in catastrophic liquid damage and motherboard micro-soldering. We don't need the phone to function normally; we bypass the damaged power circuits, repair the data traces under a microscope, and extract the memory chip's contents directly.

Both. While logical recoveries (like accidental deletion) utilize proprietary forensic software, physically failing drives require hardware intervention. We maintain an on-site Class 100 (ISO 5) Cleanroom in Virginia, allowing us to safely open and rebuild drives without microscopic dust contaminating the platters.

Standard recovery averages 5-7 business days. Priority service expedites this to 2-3 days. For critical business systems and RAID arrays, our 24/7 Emergency Lab Access provides immediate, round-the-clock engineering attention until the extraction is complete.

RAID arrays stripe data across multiple drives. When multiple drives fail, standard IT rebuilds often cause permanent data corruption. We image each drive individually at the sector level, virtually reconstruct the RAID parameters (block size, parity rotation), and extract the volumes without risking the original hardware.
