PC Scientist · Inner West · Data recovery
A thesis in Camperdown, a photographer's client shoots in Marrickville, or a decade of family photos in a Leichhardt terrace study. Different drives, same sinking moment when the folder will not open. Before anything else, stop and leave it alone. If that is what you are seeing, we can look at it with you.
We assess lost files across the Inner West, explain the options plainly, and help set up backups so one failure is never the end of the work. Call 0493 563 381 before trying anything else on the drive, or request a call back.

Data recovery · Inner West
A file lost mid-save and a drive that will not spin are very different problems. In the Inner West we see both often, and each starts with protecting what is left before anyone opens a case.
We visit Newtown and Glebe for student laptops that died before submission, Marrickville and Petersham for creatives with drives that stopped mounting, and Balmain and Drummoyne for home offices with folders that vanished. Ashfield and Burwood calls are often phones that never backed up. Each starts with an assessment, never a promise.
Why Data recovery calls us
When you are ready. Call, or book a technician.
0493 563 381Start here
A thesis gone, client shoots missing, or a terrace-study laptop that will not start. When the computer runs and the files are safe, try computer repair or computer support in the Inner West.
Stop. Do not format, reset, or keep saving drafts onto the drive that is failing.
Older drives that dropped off the computer, freeze at the logo, or started ticking.
Solid state drives that are no longer detected, or project files that open as junk.
Thumb drives, camera cards from shoots, and folders deleted from a computer that still runs.
The laptop will not get past start-up, and the assignments or client files inside matter most.
We assess the device, then explain realistic paths and their limits before recovery starts.

FAQ
Thesis files on failing laptops, photographers' external drives that will not mount, deleted client folders, and phone photos that never backed up. Students, creatives and small offices all call for much the same reason.
Whatever the device, stop using it if you can until it has been assessed.
After a careful assessment, we can tell you what looks reachable. We check the drive's condition and explain your options before anything risky is tried.
If it needs a specialist lab, we tell you and help arrange it, rather than gamble with the drive locally.
We set up automatic backups to the cloud, an external drive, or both, and show you how to check they are working.
Creative work can get versioned backups, so overwriting a file by mistake is no longer the end of a project. A few minutes of checking each month keeps it honest.
You hear the likely cost after the assessment and before any recovery work. Specialist lab work is quoted separately, so you can weigh it on its own.
No Fix, No Repair Fee applies when we cannot recover the files, so a dead end does not turn into a repair bill.
