What fails in a hard drive

Mechanical failures — clicking heads, seized spindles, electronics killed by a power spike — are opened only in our Class 100 cleanroom, where donor parts and careful hands get platters readable again. Logical failures — deleted files, corrupted partitions, accidental formats — never need the lid off: we image the drive write-protected and rebuild the file system from the map up.

Dropped and portable drives

Portable USB drives are the most-dropped objects in computing, and a spinning drive dropped from desk height can crash its heads before it lands. If a drive has been dropped, do not keep trying it — each spin-up risks scoring the platters. Power it off and have it assessed; the phone call costs nothing.

The process, in four steps

  1. Free phone assessment — a technician triages it honestly, in minutes.
  2. Get it to us — drop in, we collect around Couta Rocks, or mail it in via Australia Post.
  3. Inspection ($189) — then you receive a full list of recoverable files and a fixed quote.
  4. You decide — pay for the recovery only after seeing what is recoverable.

Too far from us? Mail in your device

Plenty of Couta Rocks customers just want to send the device in. Tell us what has happened and pay the inspection fee (from $139, depending on device and turnaround). We then email you an Australia Post label to print plus our lab address — just lodge the parcel at your nearest Australia Post outlet (you pay the postage at the counter). When it arrives we inspect it and send you a full list of the files we can recover with a fixed quote — you only pay for the recovery once you have seen what is recoverable.
