SSD data recovery services

ssd data recovery

Unlike conventional hard drives that contain read-write heads and magnetic disk platters, SSD drives are equipped with fast electronics, consisting of a complex array of very fast NAND flash memory chips. Most of the modern SSD drives come with sophisticated encryption algorithms that are designed to protect user data as well as the manufacturer's intellectual property.

The main component of the SSD drive is the controller that uses complex algorithms designed to distribute data across flash memory chips (NAND). The absolute advantage of SSD over the HDD is speed; however, one must realize that SSD is still a fairly new tech and proper backups must be maintained. We recommend using SSD drives as boot drives or for gaming systems. If you plan on using SSD storage media for storing your data, we highly recommend considering investing in a well-known technology, such as a hard drive, combined into a RAID array. You may have a simple mirror raid (RAID1) which would mirror data across two drives, or you may get a more complex RAID5 configuration where we recommend a minimum of four hard drives. If we are helping you with your data recovery project, you will also benefit from our complimentary backup consulting services.

While we enjoy the fast speed of modern SSD drives, they definitely lack the most critical factor - reliability. While theoretically SSD drives are a new modern technology, the lifespan of an average solid-state drive is between one to three years, depending on the use and the application. Keeping that factor in mind should help you set proper expectations and help organize your backup strategy accordingly.

Some popular SSD drive interfaces are:
SATA, mSata, M.2, U.2, PCIe, NVMe.

SSD manufacturers that are marketed and sold these days are:
ADATA, Apple, Corsair Memory, Crucial, HGST, Imation, Intel, Kingston, Lexar Media, Micron Technology, Mushkin, OCZ, Toshiba, OWC, Patriot Memory, Plextor, PNY Technologies, Samsung, SanDisk, WD, Seagate Technology, Silicon-Power, Silicon Motion Technology, SK Hynix, Synology.

Whether it's an Apple MacBook Air, Apple MacBook Pro, iMac, MacMini - they may all be equipped with a solid-state drive. Some of the newer MacBook laptops and Microsoft Surface computers contain SSD on the mainboard or logic board. Most of these models are still recoverable and we have the data recovery solutions that help us address issues that seem hopeless.

With over 17 years of professional data recovery experience, our team has what it takes to reunite you with your lost data, whether it's crucial business data or sentimental home photos and videos of your loved ones.

We are able to recover data from most solid-state drives, whether encrypted or not, Apple, Dell, Lenovo, HP, Microsoft, Acer and other brands of laptop or desktop computers.

Both local Apple stores in Ottawa (Bayshore and Rideau) have been referring their local customers to us for various data recovery needs, and we’ve done our best to keep that recovery rate increasing.

We have successfully recovered data from encrypted FileVault containers, corrupted Time Machine backups, damaged Fusion drive configurations, and failed Apple SSD drives.

We will help you get your data back quickly and securely, so you can get back up and running with minimal downtime.

Reach out to our support team to get assistance with your project. We only aim for a successful outcome.


24hr turn around. Response time within hours of your inquiry. Price appropriate for incredible service. Friendly. Above and beyond to put your mind at ease. I received a call on a Friday afternoon to tell me my data would be 100% recoverable "just so I could enjoy my weekend" (quoted from the tech who called me). 11/10! Highly recommended. Thank you!
Patrick.

    After having broken my external Drive (2Tb), dropping on the floor. I brought it to Capital Data Recovery (CDR). I was unsure if it would be recoverable. What a joy to receive the email today that said … More "Good News!" All important files were saved and some picture and video files were put aside in distinct files. Thanks and kudos to Levon Kazariyan and his team!

    So thankful to Levon and Capital Data Recovery!
    I could not read / see my photos on a couple of brand new SD cards, and was very concerned I had lost some precious recent photos. After a phone discussion
    … More where he suggested some possible work-arounds and then an in-person visit, Levon was able to verify my photos were still there and accessible, recommend I purchase a new (very inexpensive) SD card reader, and even sent me a link to a recommended brand. All this and no charge for me taking up his valuable time and expertise!
    I am beyond happy. Highly recommend!
