Data Recovery
Data Recovery in Los Angeles
Lost photos, documents or email to a failed drive, a crash or an accidental delete? We recover data from hard drives, SSDs, RAID arrays and servers using professional recovery tools.
When Your Files Are Gone, Act Carefully
Family photos, business records, years of email — losing access to them is stressful. Mobile Computer Repair recovers data for homes and businesses from failed, damaged and corrupted storage.
We use specialized equipment, including PC-3000 and Data Extractor systems, and keep a supply of donor drives for parts, which helps recover data from drives that won't even spin up.
Recovery isn't always possible, and every attempt carries some risk — which is why the first attempt matters. Contact us for a free consultation before trying anything yourself.

- Drive won't spin
- Computer won't boot from it
- Unreadable folders
What's included
