When a drive fails or files disappear, panic sets in fast. We can often get the data back. And when it's time to retire old computers, we make sure your data goes with them safely, not to whoever buys or finds the drive next.
Data recovery
- Recovery from failed, damaged or accidentally erased drives
- Recovery of deleted files and lost partitions
- Careful handling to avoid making the damage worse
Secure disposal
- Secure wiping of old drives so data cannot be recovered
- Physical destruction of drives when wiping is not enough
- Safe disposal of old computers and equipment
How it works
For recovery, stop using the device and call us. The less it runs, the better the chance of getting data back. We assess the drive, tell you what's possible, and recover what we can. For disposal, we collect your old equipment, wipe or destroy the drives, and dispose of the rest responsibly.
Who it's for
Anyone who has lost important files, and every business replacing old computers, especially medical, legal and financial offices where client data must never leave the building on a used drive.
Why Unite
We treat your data like it's our own. Recovery work is done carefully to give you the best chance of getting files back, and disposal is done so nothing can be read again. When a drive is destroyed, we can give you a record for your files, which is helpful for compliance and audits.
Frequently asked questions
Can you always recover lost data?
Not always, but often. Results depend on what happened to the drive. We'll tell you honestly what's possible before we start.
What should I do right after losing files?
Stop using the computer or drive right away. Every minute it runs can overwrite the data you want back.
Isn't deleting files or formatting a drive enough before disposal?
No. Deleted and formatted data can often be recovered with free tools. Secure wiping or physical destruction is the only safe way.
Why does secure disposal matter for compliance?
Rules like HIPAA require that private data is properly destroyed. Secure disposal helps you meet those requirements.
How can we avoid needing data recovery?
Good backups are the best protection. With our backup service, a failed drive becomes a quick restore instead of an emergency.
