Data Recovery
At CT Repairs we offer data recovery services for laptops, desktops, external hard drives, and USB sticks. We have an array of tools that aid us in recovering data that has been accidentally deleted, formatted, or corrupted. If we cannot recover data from the hard drive because it has an internal or mechanical issue, a data specialist would need to take a look at it. We have a partnership with a local data lab that has the tools (such as a clean room) and expertise for advanced data recovery.
Computers are vulnerable to damage, especially laptops since they are portable. Although manufacturers have taken extra steps to build in protection for hard drives, there is no perfect protection available for hardware or data.

• Accidental Deletion, Overwrite or Formatting
• Impact Damage
