A lot of important data is being stored on laptops today. Laptop use has increased significantly in recent years. Increased demands for portability and convenience have been envisioned in this mobile technology.

Demand for laptops has gone up in part due to the spread of telecommuting in businesses today. Businesses often allow employees to work on laptops at home and bring them to work.

Data loss in a laptop can end up costing the company a lot of employee hours worked. Even people who use their laptops for personal use are not pleased if they lose any important data. Carrying around a laptop all day can cause stress on the machine and increase the chances of data loss.

There are many companies that can help you with the laptop data recovery process. After you contact a company, first you will likely go through an evaluation process to evaluate the extent of damage done.

A client of mine was ripped off nearly £1000 (about $2000) by a data recovery company. When the laptop was given to my friend that repairs them he found a very simple fault in the machine which stopped the HD powering up.

Despite this "firm" selling them their services AND another hard disk there was such a minor fault ir was unbelievable.

I use a service called Datafort which uploads in an encrypted form data to a server on a daily basis.

These services are quite cheap and worth their weight in gold. I had a HD crash and only lost a few hours stuff - nothing too serious.

I have a hard drive that crashed and has a lot of material that I failed to backup (yes I know...) :(

I am trying to find a company who can retrieve the data however, since it is of an adult nature I am hesitant to send it to just ANY company due to the sensitive nature of the data!

Can anyone recommend a company who deals with adult material?

Thanks

About 2 years ago we had a system die, had all our accounting, reporting and a ton of over stuff on it that just put our business at a stand still. We used a company called:

Drive Saves Inc. here in California 415-382-2000

Although it cost $3900 to recover all the data, they were able to save 99.99% (there was 1 file they could not get) off the drive! This was for 200 gigs of information to be recovered by the way. Took them 3 days (gave it to them on thrusday and got it back on monday morning) so almost no down time.

So anyways there is food for thought. Hey and because we used them if you tell them that Feisty Media sent you over they will give you at 10% discount.

oh yea, they had not issues with the adult stuff on the drive, honestly I dont even think they look at the files.

If the drive still spins and doesn't have the "click of death" sound, try out getdataback from runtime.org. They have a free version that will check out the drive and tell you what it can recover, and you only buy it if you like the results it shows you.

It is totally nondestructive, never writes anything to the damaged drive, it reads the data, rebuilds a directory on a new drive, and then copies all the files you tell it to copy from the old drive to the new one, so even if it is unsuccessful, it won't hinder your ability to send the bad drive somewhere for recovery.

Cost us $89, and is the most amazing program on the planet in my book, has totally saved our ass numerous times.

do these services get paid based on performance and how much data was
salvaged or purely by the hour?
