Data recovery is the process of salvaging and handling data from damaged, failed, corrupted, or inaccessible storage media.
Hard disk drive data recovery requests happen more often than you may realize. Failures and loss of data commonly occur due to the following reasons:
- Hard disk media failure
- Overwriting or formatting the hard disk
- Accidental or malicious file deletion
- Virus or malware infection
- Damage due to power surges
Treen Technology has equipment for and expertise recovering data from the following media types (but not limited to):
- Hard disk drives (SATA, SAS, IDE, and SCSI).
- Solid-state drives (SATA, SAS, and IDE).
- External hard disk drives (USB, Firewire, Thunderbolt, SCSI, and Parallel).
- USB Flash Drives
- Removable media cards (SD, Compact Flash, SmartMedia and Memory Stick)
- Floppy Disk (3.5" and 5.25")
- Iomega Zip and Jaz
Please note if you attempt data recovery yourself with improper tools or experience it can make the data recovery process more difficult and in many cases more costly. If you experience data loss please immediately shut down and disconnect your computer or storage media. Continued use of failing media will often make the data recovery process harder.
