DESKTOPS & LAPTOPS

Technology is there to simplify our lives and help us perform to a level that could not be achieved otherwise and therefore the failure of these devices can lead to disruption in our business and personal lives in an instant. There are a number of ways in which you can lose data on your computer (desktop, laptop or notebook) through electrical failure, mechanical or physical damage, software malfunction and/or human error. But remember, if you lose your data, we’re the experts in data recovery!

WE HAVE A NO RECOVERY – NO CHARGE POLICY.

EXAMPLES

  • Physical Damage – from accidental dropping  to intentional throwing of the media due to frustration
  • Power failure / electrical surge
  • Data corruption
  • Data loss due to virus activity
