All media received goes through an extensive analysis to determine the drive's condition and its recording media.

We will determine whether the problems are logical (software structures), Electrical/Firmware or Mechanical. or all three.

Diagnostic Phase 1 - Involves inspections of external housing and circuit board.

Diagnostic Phase 2 - Involves testing the circuit components, drive motor, and the pre-amp.

Diagnostic Phase 3 - Involves inspecting the read and write heads and disc surface inside our Class 5 cleanroom. Testing the service adaptive and donor matching and testing.

The evaluation is free of charge, and the evaluation process usually takes 1-3 business days. The diagnostic process depends on the condition of the media, make, and model. Hard Drive, like Seagate drives, which accounts for at least 75% of the failures, is the most complicated drive for diagnostic and recovery. Hard Drives who have physical and mechanical issues need a customized diagnostic procedure to determine what recovery method will be utilized.

At Truedata Recovery Solutions, our costs are determined by the failure and storage capacity of the device and the extent of the damage. You will not be charged by the hour like other hard drive data recovery company, and our pricing is 100% transparent. We will evaluate your device for free, and we'll let you know the exact cost to recover your data. Submit a recovery case here.

Truedata operates under the highest level of security protocols in the data recovery industry. Customer privacy and confidentiality are our number one priority. All our data recovery equipment is offline, and all recovery is encrypted on our vault servers.

Standard Services has a minimum of 7-14 business days procedures; however, the reality is every drive is unique, and recovery methods are always needed to be customized to the problem and damaged of the hard drive. We also offer expedited services that require an additional fee. Each service time is an estimate, and it's important to keep in mind that some cases may require more or less time. We cannot guarantee the turn-around time of each recovery. But we can guarantee that we will work on your expedited recovery non-stop over the weekends, holidays, and after business hours until we have the final results.

We accept Visa, Mastercard, Debit, E-transfer, Company check, and in some cases, a P.O may be accepted. We do not accept cash for payment.
