Data Recovery

There are many ways to recover lost data. Deleted items are typically easy to recovery unless the data has been overwritten. In many cases improperly shutting or powering down your computer can leave data fragments or partial data. There are two types of data recovery, hardware and software. We use a variety of software to recover files that were deleted or a drive that was formatted. Hardware Data Recovery requires a clean room and an exchange of platters, this is for hard drives that have physically malfunctioned. This type of recovery can be a very expensive. And is another reason to always properly backup your data. As a rule of thumb, if you lost, deleted or formatted over a file that you wanted to save, stop using the computer and bring it in immediately. The more use that the computer has after data has been lost the more difficult it becomes to recover.
