At some point, everybody needs a second chance. When you’ve gone elsewhere to try and recover your data, but no one could get the job done, SalvageData is always here to offer you a second chance. Countless times before, we have salvaged what others have deemed unrecoverable. We understand how important your data is, and we want to help, even when others can’t. So when there’s no option for failure, know that you can always count on the experts at SalvageData to give you the best chance for a successful recovery.

If your media has been previously opened, whether by another data recovery company, at your local computer shop, or in your own home, your media has been exposed to dangerous conditions and possibly irreversible changes or damage. Hard drives and other media storage devices are sensitive and delicate mechanisms, and even the most infinitesimal damage can cause once recoverable data to be lost forever. The only way to ensure the integrity and security of your data is to Verify to Trust the certifications and credentials of anywhere you send your data. Without a cleanroom environment, skilled professionals, and certified practices and procedures, your data is at risk.

If you’ve taken your drive elsewhere, and are not sure whether or not it’s been opened, check the label on the cover of your drive. If it has been torn or tampered with in any capacity, it's likely that your drive has been opened.

Because of the highly susceptible nature of hard drives and other media storage devices, much more extensive tools and resources, as well as labor, are required to even evaluate previously opened drives, and provide an accurate analysis of the damage done and the steps necessary in order to salvage your data. Media that has been previously opened is unlike any other kind of recovery, which is why at SalvageData we classify it as a Specialized Recovery, requiring its own procedures. Luckily, at SalvageData we have the knowledge and the expertise to deal with these types of situations in our Second Chance Recovery program.
