Before you bring it in

Turn it off and leave it off.

Every restart puts more wear on a failing drive. Don’t run disk repair tools, reinstall the operating system, or keep plugging it in to check. Unplug it and bring it to us as it is.

We see recovery cases from homes and businesses across Oakland, Berkeley, and nearby East Bay cities.

Pricing

What data recovery costs

Basic data transfers start at $150. Advanced (Tier 3) recovery starts at $999 and can go higher depending on the failure, parts, and labor. We confirm the level after we’ve evaluated the device.

Tier 1

Accessible drive transfer

The drive still reads reliably, so we copy your files off it safely.

Starting at $150
Tier 2

Logical & failing-drive recovery

Lost partitions, corrupted file systems, bad sectors, or a drive that keeps dropping out. We image it under controlled conditions before pulling files.

Quoted after diagnosis
Tier 3

Advanced recovery

Severe failures that need extra tools, donor parts, or specialized procedures.

$999 and up
