Hard drive failure and data transfer
Sooner or later every hard drive will fail. That is a fact of life. Of course, some will last longer than others and the computer or laptop that houses it may well have come to the end of it's life cycle before this evers happens to you. But sometimes you get a problem with a hard drive that still has a lot of useful or personal information still on it.
This is why it is essential to make regular back-ups of the hard drive. However, most people never make a backup. So what happens in the event that the hard drive breaks and you need to get the information off it?

Call us and we'll send an IT engineer to your premises to investigate the problem. Sometimes we can get the actual hard drive to work. In that case we'll repair it and strongly advise you to make a backup as soon as possible. Ideally into an 'in the cloud' service.
Supply and install
If we can't do that, we'll try and gain access to the data on the hard drive. Then we can supply you with a new one, install it into your PC or laptop and place your old data on the new hard drive. This will enable you to use your computer just as you did before. We will give you some advice on backing up the new hard drive to protect your data.
Remove and extract
In some cases, if stage 2 doesn't solve the problem we will take the hard drive to our workshop. We will dismantle the hard drive and place the disk on a special machine to extract it's data. We'll then copy that data onto a new hard drive, return to your premises and install it into your PC or laptop. This process can take about a week. We will give you a quotation for how much this will cost before we begin.
