Overview
Geekytek recovers files from failing hard drives, SSDs, USB sticks, and memory cards. We work on a simple principle: no recovery, no charge for the attempt at recovery beyond the agreed diagnostic. You'll get a clear assessment of what's recoverable before you decide anything.
Every recovery is handled read-only wherever possible — we image the device first and work from the copy, so nothing we do makes the situation worse. Recovered data is delivered on a new drive or secure transfer, and we'll help you set up backups so this never happens twice.
What we recover
- Accidentally deleted files and emptied recycle bins
- Failing or clicking hard drives and dead SSDs
- Corrupted partitions and unreadable USB drives or SD cards
- Photos, documents, and business records from old machines
- Backup setup after recovery so it never happens again
Frequently asked questions
- My drive is making clicking noises — what should I do?
- Power it off immediately and don't run recovery software on it. Clicking usually means mechanical failure, and every additional spin-up can reduce what's recoverable. Bring it to us as-is.
- Can you recover permanently deleted files?
- Often, yes — 'deleted' files usually remain on the disk until overwritten. The key is to stop using the device right away and get it assessed.
- What does data recovery cost?
- It depends on the failure type. We assess the device first and give you a firm quote and a realistic estimate of what's recoverable before any paid work begins.
