Data Recovery from spills
Laptop won't turn on? Don't panic about your photos and documents. In 95% of liquid damage cases, the data storage is recoverable. We can extract it.
Your Laptop Is Dead, Your Data Isn't
When liquid hits a motherboard, the laptop usually shuts down to protect itself. The Hard Drive or SSD is often sealed or located in a separate area.
We bypass the dead motherboard entirely. We remove the storage drive, clean its connectors, and mount it into a specialized reader to extract your Desktop, Documents, and Photos folders to an external hard drive.
Recovery Scenarios
Removable Drives
For most Windows laptops, we simply pull the M.2 or SATA drive and copy the data.
Soldered SSDs
For MacBooks with soldered storage, we repair the motherboard "Life Lines" just enough to power up the chips and access data.
BitLocker/FileVault
We can help you navigate encryption keys to unlock your drive on a new computer.
