What is your success rate?

Currently, there are a lot of speculations on the internet in regarding to the success rate of data recovery. Asking recovery rate from data recovery lab is like asking average body temperature in the hospital, where some patients are with the high fever and the others are cold corpse… yes, that’s giving you the perfect body temperature of 36.6. This joke is reminding that the differences do matter, especially in the situations when the actual spread of values in certain criteria niches is much more important than an average (which can be very misleading).

If we have a close look on the incoming row of failed hard drives, they are always different on the scale of data damage. The fair portion of the incoming drives are in fairly good condition and 100% recoverable, and the other ones are completely destroyed, damaged beyond recoverable by any advanced specialist.

Success Rate comparison by major data loss issue and by HDD brand

For example, let’s say some of the data recovery companies are able to perform only basic (entry level) data recovery procedures and they take in only the entry level cases. The full-service data recovery companies are able and deal with the recovery cases of any difficulty levels, including the absolutely hopeless ones. So, how would you calculate the success rate for those whose work performed on the polar levels, but in the same serving industry? There is no scale for that, as well as not possible to compare the success rate of the transplant surgeon and the general practitioner.

Here in the lab, we have to cope with the badly damaged hard drives as well as the other data media on the daily basis. Every third hard drive comes in to our lab from the third party (data recovery companies, computer shops, computer technicians), meaning the drive had been attempted to be recovered unsuccessfully whether by one of the numerous data recovery companies out there, or even worse, by vulgar unprofessional intrusion of some computer technicians. As consequence, of those hardcore recovery tries the overall recovery rate for such cases is rather lower in comparison to the rest of hardware incoming for servicing. To compensate our extra time and labor efforts, the extra tampered fee will be asked to pay upfront on any open hard drive.

Generally, Data Lab 247 has achieved the leading success rate in the data recovery industry, including the most critical cases. Our success is based on our 20 years of experience focused solely in data recovery techniques. Our engineers are highly knowledgeable, skilled and equipped with the right tools and set to get the job done successfully right off the start.

Drive is seen in BIOS, but makes spinning and clicking sound, can't be accessed by XP
- Tried running chkdsk, didn't help - also upgraded firmware, that didn't help either
- Drive is seen in BIOS, but seems like more than software recovery.
Dear Sirs, Got the hard disk with data - thanks a lot! Everything looks great so far! - Nathan B. Lexington, Massachusetts The United States of America
