Hard drives, SSDs, RAID and memory cards — recovered for Norwich, Norfolk and across the UK.
A drive that has started ticking, an SSD the machine no longer lists, a RAID that fell over partway through a rebuild, a card of photographs reading empty. None of it is unusual here and very little of it is final. Finding out costs nothing, and the price comes back fixed, in writing, before anything is opened.
Most hard drive recovery Norwich sends us runs the same way: post the drive, hear what is recoverable and what it would cost, then take your time deciding. Nothing to pay for the answer.
The diagnostic is free and the quote is fixed. One written figure, agreed before any work starts — and the whole price list sits on the data recovery cost page.
A snapped USB stick is given the same care as a forty-drive SAN. Diagnosis comes first, then one recovery service that covers the deleted, the damaged and the plainly dead, HDD and SSD alike. Choose a device below, or ring up and describe it however you like: the voice on the other end belongs to data recovery specialists, not a call handler working from a script.

Tracked, insured post reaches our Cambridge location the next working day — or drive it down, an hour and twenty on the A11.
Two working days after it arrives you will know the fault, the honest odds and the one fixed price.
Give the word and whatever we recovered comes back to you on an encrypted drive.
Most of what reaches this bench arrived by tracked, insured post. It is the steadiest way to move a poorly drive, and a parcel posted in Norfolk is usually on the bench the next working day.
Is the drive still bolted inside a laptop, desktop, MacBook, iMac, server or CCTV / DVR recorder? The hard drive or SSD needs to come out first, and only the bare drive travels — taking drives out of machines is not something we do here. Storage soldered to a motherboard (Apple Silicon Macs, one or two very thin laptops) is the single thing beyond us: if it will not come out, it cannot come in.

Mark the parcel for the attention of Cambridge Data Recovery. From Norwich it is about an hour and twenty down the A11, then two minutes off the A14 at Junction 32 — or next working day by tracked post. You hear from us as soon as it is booked onto the bench.
Unsure what to put in the box? Ring 0800 689 0668 before you seal it, or run the free online diagnostic.
"Portable Seagate with eleven years of photographs on it, knocked off a worktop onto a stone floor. It was ticking when I posted it on the Monday and by the Thursday I knew the lot was coming back. No drama and no sales talk."
Helen B · Wymondham"Our surgery server lost a second disk partway through a rebuild and the IT firm went quiet on us. They copied all four drives and gave us back nine years of patient records. Straight with us from the first phone call."
David P · Dereham"Dissertation on a USB stick that broke off inside the laptop. Sensible answers by phone, the connector rebuilt, and everything back on a new stick with photographs of the work. It cost what they said it would."
Sophie K · NorwichFrom the city out to King's Lynn, Great Yarmouth, Thetford, Dereham and the coast at Cromer, we are the data recovery specialists Norfolk households and businesses keep coming back to. Because everything moves by tracked next-day post, this bench handles hard drive recovery UK wide too: a parcel from Cornwall is treated no differently from one out of Thorpe St Andrew, and the data recovery Norfolk leans on sits no further away than the nearest post office. Business at a standstill? The blog has a plain guide to disaster recovery services in Norwich, and every town we cover is set out on the data recovery Norfolk page.
Nothing to pay for the diagnosis, one figure in writing after it, and no fix no fee on most work.
