SDHC, MicroSD and SD Card Recovery.

SD memory cards are commonly used in a multitude of applications, but the memory chips used are prone to degradation, controller failure and power surges. They are fragile devices which do not like mistreatment. With no moving parts data recovery often requires the removal and direct interrogation of the memory chip.

Data Recovery Specialists are industry leaders in chip-off and JTAG NAND memory chip procedures. With brand new and revolutionary PC-3000 Flash Spider Board Adapters coupled with microscopes, we are able to recover data previously declared unrecoverable. With no need to solder to the technological pinouts, time is saved, success rates are doubled and critically the risk of damage to the media is negated.

This same technology which we have developed for forensic investigations is available to all our data recovery clients. Supporting all brands including Kingston, Integral, PNY and SanDisk, we have specialist clean rooms, micro-soldering capabilities, NAND flash readers and over 10,000 donor parts for every SD, SDHC, microSD and miniSD card manufactured.

With over 500 successful flash memory data recoveries this year, for clients including the MoD and police, Data Recovery Specialists have the highest success rates in the industry! From forensic investigations to recovering wedding photographs, your data is safe in our hands.

These were our statistics for SD cards and media last year

► 509 memory cards were received for diagnostic evaluation

► 8,134 spare parts cataloged and stored in our flash media library

► 91.1% data recovery success rate for flash media

► Our engineers worked 24:7:365 on SD card data recoveries

► 88% of data recoveries were completed within 5 working days!

► 91% of clients told us that they were satisfied with our data recovery service

Typical SD Card Symptoms

The Card is Write Protected

If you aren’t able to read or write data to your SD card, it’s possible the lock on the side is switched on. Most SD cards have this feature to prevent data from being overwritten. If you still can’t use the device, you’ll need to format it.

Card Cannot be Used

The ‘card cannot be used’ error message will sometimes appear when your SD card is in your camera. This is because certain devices, like mobile phones, format cards so they can only be used in one device.

Missing/Unreadable Files

If your SD card is able to write files perfectly fine, but some are unreadable, this can be resolved by using free data recovery software. This can run the risk of overwriting your SD card’s data, so you should exercise caution.

Physical Damage

SD cards are delicate devices and often made using cheap components, so they are incredibly susceptible to physical damage. Always make sure you carefully remove the device from the connector port.

Card Runs Slowly

If the SD card is running slowly, but is still working, your best option is to back up all of your data and format it. Be careful to back up everything you need before formatting though.

Free Data Recovery Evaluation

"Our free hard drive data recovery evaluation service will tell you whether your data can be recovered, exactly how much it will cost and how long the data recovery will take. Simply phone or email us for a job number and send your data recovery to us. Your hard drive or media will be photographed, catalogued and bar-coded and the data recovery evaluation will start within an hour of receipt."

File Listing Of Recoverable Files

"Once in the laboratory, your media will undergo a comprehensive data recovery evaluation to determine the extent of the data loss. We aim to complete this process within 24 hours depending on the complexity of work involved. The engineers will provide a no obligation recovery prognosis, with a guaranteed list of recoverable files and an estimated timescale. You can then decide whether to proceed with the recovery. Should you choose not to proceed, we will return your media by secure data courier."

Completing the Data Recovery

"Should you choose to proceed, the data recovery process will be completed and the data will be safely stored on our servers. We will then copy out the data to your preferred choice of output media - either 64Gb memory stick or HDD (for purchase or loan). Your data will be dispatched on our secure, next day courier service. Once you have received your data any copies of your data will be permanently and securely erased from our servers after 7 days."

"I would definitely recommend them to all"

"I had an employee who kept two years worth of his work, on his local drive rather than his network drive. When the drive died the user was in a panic! I send the drive to Data Recovery Specialists, who were able to recover all the users data, promptly and at a good price too! I would recommend them to all - 5 Stars!" - Gary Mulvihill

"You guys saved my company"

"Laptop died with everything for my business on, all invoices, contacts, emails, resources and financials. One data recovery 'expert' just said "your hard drive is dead", but everything was recovered by DRS... Also, provided an extremely fast turn around for reasonable price, where other companies were asking for a significantly higher fee just to look at the computer. Literally, you guys saved my company. I can not thank you enough!!!" - Andrew Laundy

"Professional and friendly throughout"

"I am so pleased as data recovery specialists managed to recover all of my thousands of photographs which I stupidly didn't back up. Service was great and fast. The service wasn't cheap, but they kept in touch with me the entire time, and were professional and friendly throughout. And they recovered my data too!" - Claire Whalley

"I would definitely recommend them again"

"What do you do when faced with a data recovery situation - I just wanted to cry. After an internet search and phoning around several companies, Data Recovery Specialists seemed to be the best solution. Even though it was a Saturday, they dealt with my enquiry and assured me they could help. I sent my hard drive to them and within a day of receipt they had already determined what was recoverable. They quote was reasonable and I am so thankful to Data Recovery Specialists. I would definitely recommend them for hard drive recovery!" - Shaun Weston

"I would definitely use them again"

"Our RAID-5 failed after two hard drives went down with mechanical issues. Data Recovery Specialists were recommended and they immediately responded to our enquiry. On reciept of the RAID hard drives they expedited the data recovery process and 24 hours later we received all the RAID data. We were expecting considerable downtime, so to be up and running again so quickly was definitely a bonus. I would definately use them again, but I am hoping we don't have any more data recovery issues!" Willmott Dixon

"Surprised how quick the it was!"

"Thank you for processing our data and copying it to hard drive. We were pleasantly surprised how quick the data recovery was and you kept us informed throughout the process. Data Recovery always raises trepidation, but we found the whole experience quite reassuring. I would not hesitate to recommend Data Recovery Specialists in future." Ministry of Defence

"Fast, effective and professional service"

"I thought we would never get our scans recovered and imported back onto our PACS system, but you came to our rescue. Your RAID data recovery service was fast, effective and professional and the consultants we dealt with were very knowledgeable and helpful. Brilliant data recovery service - thank you!" NHS

"These guys are a real life saver"

"Thank you so much for all your help - Data Recovery Specialists are a real life saver! I do not know what I would have done without the data you recovered from our external hard drive. We would have probably had to re-record all the location shots, which would have been time consuming and very expensive." BBC Wales

"Your hard drive data recovery service really was second-to-none"

"Thank you for solving our stiction issues so promptly from our reel to reel tapes. We were expecting to lose some of the data, so we were extremely happy when you recovered the full survey. Your hard drive data recovery service really was second-to-none! The data you recovered has proved invaluable." Regal Petroleum

"They really eased my mind"

"I was so worried when I dropped my laptop. It contained all my work and stupidly, I had not backed up the hard drive! I had heard the hard drive data recovery was expensive but had no option. From my first discussion with Data Recovery Specialists, they really eased my mind and I felt confident they could do the job. And to my surprise, the quote for data recovery was not nearly as much as I had budgeted. Thanks for all your help guys! " Victoria Hall

"They really are life-savers!"

"From the moment I called Data Recovery Specialists to receiving the data, I cannot fault the service. They recovered absolutely everything from my hard drive and at a price I was comfortable with. Data Recovery Specialists really are life-savers! Whilst I hope it doesn't happen to me again, I would certainly call their data recovery team if I need to." Shenda Falvey
