Data Recovery from USB devices and SD cards
Not all data is stored in a desktop or laptop ‘Hard Disk’ format. Many clients prefer the flexibility and size of using USB/flash drives, particularly for storing school/coursework where they are saving and updating data on a daily basis.
Whilst flash media does not have any moving parts, problems can still arise with these devices if they are not used and removed correctly, or if accidental damage occurs.
Whatever the reason for your data loss, EADR can offer a tailored recovery plan to recover from any manufacturer, make, model or type of storage media. As with hard drive recoveries, a free inspection of your device will take place so we can talk you through the options available to recover your important data.
Causes of removable media data loss

Common Reasons of Failure
Data loss from removable media devices can be caused by many different things! The most common ones reasons that we deal with here are physically damaged USB sticks - dropping a laptop with a USB stick still attached, snapping the USB connector off when it's still plugged in a desktop machine, and running it over in a car will definitely not do it any good.
SD cards can also become corrupt/unreadable.

Fragility
With more and more people using their mobile phone for every task, as well as the ever-increasing popularity of devices such as Go-Pro and DJI for on-the-go video footage, storing data in a removable format is more common than ever.
The sheer fragility of these items mean they are so very easily damaged and can fail for a multitude of reasons.
Specialist Tools and Expertise...
Due to the complexity and size of most common removable media sources, specialist tools and bespoke techniques are developed and employed by our technicians to ensure that the maximum amount of retrievable data is recovered on your behalf.
We have extensive micro-soldering skills and knowledge of flash media technology, which means we are able to recover data from broken devices that would otherwise be destined for the bin!
