Free Initial Inspection – Transparent Pricing
We offer a free initial inspection for all hard drives. If internal diagnostics or disassembly are required—such as opening the hard drive casing or cleanroom handling—a non-refundable assessment fee of £99.00 will apply. This covers the time, equipment, and cleanroom evaluation necessary to diagnose complex issues. We will always inform you beforehand and obtain your approval before proceeding with any chargeable work.
Basic Troubleshooting Before Sending Your Drive:
Here are a few things you can try before calling our experts — but stop immediately if the drive makes any clicking or buzzing noises:
- Try using a different USB cable or power adapter
- Connect the drive to another port or computer
- Check Disk Management (Windows) or Disk Utility (macOS) to see if the drive is detected
- Do not format the drive or use recovery software if the drive is physically failing
