Topic Wiki

Ok so my rule of determining the level of difficulty in data recovery is really 2 questions.
#1 -  is it making any noise
#2 -  is it detected in the bios if you connect it directly to the mobo

If the answer to #1 is yes - then if you want any hopes of recovering the data do not attempt to continue powering it on. It can be making noise because the heads are broken or bent and if that's the case you will scrape the platters and kill the drive beyond any hope of recovery. (data recovery isn't like the way they show it in the movies you cannot actually remove a platter and recover any data off it) And please do not attempt the Freezer Trick - it doesn't work on current drives anymore and actually introduces condensation in the drive that can kill the platters.
If its detected in the bios we can try a couple of things - and i can usually recover the data for about $250 - $799 - over 50% of the time its about $300.

Thanks

Pictures got corrupted on a USB drive. Now all that shows are the following two files (instead of folders).





Any advice or suggestions?

Very important not to try saving anything onto the drive you are trying to recover

If the chip is broken it's unrecoverable, if not I can have a look, my lab is in Monsey.

I tried reaching out, haven't heard back. Is he still doing it?
If it's not free shipping it's not worth it.

What's my best option for trying to recover deleted media from the internal storage of an Samsung Galaxy device?

 PhotoRec?
Recuva?
 Willing to spend even 50$+ on a program to recover the one file I accidentally deleted.

Was anyone able to recover media without rooting? I noticed that a few months of photos/videos from my gallery (Samsung Galaxy) are missing. I definitely don't remember deleting them.

Any recommendations of someone in Lakewood who can fix this?
