The IT and multimedia market sees new storage devices appear constantly. Continuous use, improper handling, or a single unlucky move can lead to data loss: the device fails and personal or business data becomes inaccessible. In these moments, rushing is the worst choice—DIY attempts often make things worse. Professional recovery uses write‑blocked workflows and specialised hardware to maximise success without risking the source.

Why professional data recovery matters?

Successful data recovery requires special tools and methodologies depending on the type of failure. Different procedures are required for hard disk drives (HDDs), solid-state drives (SSDs, NVMe), and USB flash drives or memory cards. We work safely and without writing data using state-of-the-art laboratory equipment (e.g., industrial data recovery systems, firmware-level access).

How SSDs work — and why it matters?

An SSD is built from a controller and NAND flash chips (similar principles to USB drives and memory cards). Because the controller orchestrates how data is stored and mapped, modern recovery focuses on controller‑level access rather than desoldering chips. In‑situ methods (no chip‑off) are generally safer and faster on supported models.

NVMe vs. SATA SSD — recovery essentials

In‑situ methods (no chip‑off) are generally safer and faster on supported models.

When physical work may be necessary?

Some designs (certain USB flash drives or memory cards) may require direct memory access when controller‑level methods are not viable. We only choose this path when safer options are exhausted, and we explain the risks and conditions beforehand.

Common symptoms

• The device is not detected, disappears intermittently, or appears as “unknown.”
• Unusual slowness, corrupted files, clicking (HDD), SMART warnings.
• Accidental deletion, quick format, RAW volume, partition errors.
• Controller/firmware anomalies; “read‑only” behaviour in USB enclosures.

What NOT to do after data loss?

• Do not write to the affected device (no installs, no saving back to it).
• Do not run random “repair” tools (e.g., chkdsk, “rebuild,” “fix,” etc.).
• Do not heat, freeze, or disassemble the device.
• Power it off and seek expert diagnostics as soon as possible..

Our approach

• Stabilisation first: firmware/SA work on HDD; loader/tech mode and translator/L2P rebuild for SSD/NVMe (where supported).
• Write‑blocked intake; the source remains untouched.
• File‑system reconstruction (NTFS/exFAT/APFS, etc.) and directory‑tree recovery.
• Verification with sample file opens; delivery on the target media you choose.
