Manhattan and Buffalo Data Recovery

Your computer can remember things much better than you can and as a society, we've come to rely on our storage devices to hold the vast amounts of information. The Information Age has led to a society that expects access to data in the same way we expect there to be roads. But we forget that everything is stored on physical machines, and those machines can fail. All computers have two basic systems, hardware and software. A failure of either one can mean a loss of data, which has led to an entire service market geared towards recovering information from broken computers. This article is going to focus on some of the data recovery services available to computer users in New York, specifically Manhattan Data Recovery and Buffalo Data Recovery.

If your laptop doesn't boot, the first task will be to determine if your problem is physical (a problem with your hard drive) or logical (a problem with your operating system). Both may present the same way. You may be unable to boot your computer or even turn it on. If your computer was popping and whirring before it broke down then it may be a hardware crash. If you're not computer savvy enough yourself to know what type of crash you're dealing with, your best bet is to bring the computer into a local computer shop in order to get a diagnostic. A good computer shop will not charge you for an evaluation, and a good data recovery service will not charge you if they fail to recover any data. Here are some of the ones available to Manhattan and Buffalo.

Secure Data Recovery has store locations in 27 states including New York. They work on Hard Drive Recovery, USB & Digital Media Recovery, Server Data Recovery, RAID Data Recovery, Database Data Recovery, File / E-Mail Data Recovery, Encrypted Data Recovery, Computer Repair, Secure Deletion, Database Conversion, and Computer Parts Disposal. They offer free evaluations and have an office in Manhattan. Buffalo is a little harder to service. Most national services, including this one, don't have offices in Buffalo, but their office accepts shipped computers.

Locations:
845 Third Avenue, 6th Floor
New York NY 10022
Phone: 1-212-981-3498

Disk Doctors is also nationwide service. They have been in the data recovery business for over two decades.. They work on failed hard drives, both internal and external, RAID arrays and complete laptops, and they employ highly trained technicians. Their service comes in three types. First is Emergency Service in which they work on your drive 24x7 until the data is retrieved. Next they offer Expedited Service that entails your drive being worked on continually during business hours. Lastly, their normal service entails your drive being worked on during business hours on a first-come-first serve basis. The computer can be brought to the nearest office, or can be shipped to the nearest office. They offer free diagnostic, except in the case of RAID devices, and there is no charge if no data is recovered. This service is reversed, having a location in Buffalo but none in Manhattan.
