Common causes of data loss

  • Logical error: Drive detected, files inaccessible
  • Accidental deletion: Wastepaper bin emptied – act quickly
  • Water damage / power surge: Liquid or electrical surge
  • Ransomware & malware: Encrypted or corrupted files
  • RAID failure: Several drives in the NAS or Server have failed

Frequently Asked Questions about Data Recovery

Click on a question to see the answer.

How much does data recovery cost?
The cost depends on the type of damage and the storage medium. Simple logical errors are cheaper to repair than physical damage. Following our free diagnostic assessment, you will receive a firm quote – with no surprises and no risk.
Can I back up my data myself?
Free tools can provide initial results for deleted files. In the event of physical damage, RAID failures or ransomware, you should not attempt any DIY solutions – taking the wrong steps could destroy your data permanently. It is better to contact us at an early stage.
How long does data recovery take?
Simple cases can be resolved within a few hours. More complex cases – such as those involving physically damaged hard drives or large-scale RAID systems – may take several days. We will keep you fully informed about the timeline.
Will my data be handled securely?
Of course. We operate in accordance with the principles of the GDPR and treat all data as confidential. We are happy to enter into a confidentiality agreement upon request. Your data will never leave our premises – you are welcome to bring your data storage device to our laboratory in person.
Can all the data be recovered?
Not in every case. In the event of serious physical damage or data that has been overwritten multiple times, a full recovery may not be possible. We’ll be completely honest with you about what is possible – before you decide whether to go ahead with the service.
Who do you offer data recovery services to?
We help private individuals and businesses of all sizes – from individuals with a faulty USB-Stick to companies experiencing a RAID failure. We also provide discreet and expert advice to public authorities and law firms.
