Data recovery from memory
cards, FLASH devices

UNLIKE A HARD DISK, THERE ARE NO MOVING PARTS IN FLASH TYPE DATA CARRIERS, VALUABLE DATA ARE STORED ON ONE OR SEVERAL MEMORY CHIPS.

Memory cards (SD, MicroSD, XD, etc.) are most often used in cameras, video cameras, and mobile phones. The FLASH-based data storage group also includes pen drives and SSDs.

Based on our experience, these devices are less reliable than an HDD and have a shorter lifespan, as their rewrite cycle is finite. We recommend that all users do not store their photos, theses and other valuable data exclusively on a FLASH-type data carrier, but always make a backup copy, for example, on an external hard drive.

Analysis

The data recovery is preceded by a free analyis, during which it is determined whether data recovery is possible. We assess the damage caused by the error and determine the expected result of the data backup. The price of data recovery for memory cards, flash drives and SSDs is different, in each case we determine the price based on the nature and severity of the error, as well as the technology used for the recovery. You can find out about the expected costs here.

About the service

The more serious the problem, the more time and/or tools our professionals have to use during the process, this determines the price of the recovery.

In the case of purchasing a component or in case of high-capacity storages, the data recovery may take longer due to a large increase in copy times.

The price of data recovery does not depend on the capacity of the data storage or the amount of data to be recovered.

After the data recovery process is completed, an Expert Opinion can be requested for an additional fee, which contains the following information:

  • Detailed description of the technical condition of the data carrier
  • Description of the data recovery process

Frequent reasons of data losses

  • Random formatting occurs on the camera or video camera.
  • The contents of the memory card, flash drive or SSD are deleted.
  • The computer or camera does not recognize the connected FLASH memory and displays an error.
  • The device falls into water, burns, or is subjected to other external physical impacts.
  • The computer detects the connected FLASH memory, but sees it as empty.

Data recovery options

  • Data recovery of a physically defective memory card, flash drive, SSD.
  • Data recovery of a deleted or formatted memory card, flash drive, SSD.
  • Data recovery is also possible in the case of damaged components or encrypted data storage.

We offer customized high-quality data recovery solutions.

In case of special failures, we develop unique algorithms for reading and interpreting the data content.

In the case of a faulty or damaged FLASH data carrier, it is important to know which parts are damaged and to what extent. After deletion or formatting, whether the storage was still used after the incident largely determines the outcome of the data recovery. In many cases, data recovery programs available on the market do not find data, and are ineffective for damaged devices.
