Between the M4 and the Loughor estuary, Gorseinon's trading units and new developments alike depend on storage which will fail at some point and need to be recovered. Both can obtain a quote from us and then post us their failed storage when it does.
We offer a free diagnostic in respect of every Gorseinon customer. We provide a fixed quotation prior to undertaking any work, and in most cases you only pay if we recover your data.
Gorseinon has quietly become one of the most busy parts of SA4 with its numerous trading and light industrial units surrounding the town and at Penllergaer, its wholesalers and installers running off NAS boxes (Network Attached Storage) and old tower servers. Street after street has been lined with recently built homes filled with equipment for working from home. The failures follow both halves: those from RAID systems that lost a disk in a unit office, the drives from tills and CCTV recorders along the parade, and family external drives which slipped off a desk during a move.
Junction 47 makes it easy for people to get here without having to drive anywhere: after we've quoted on a job, tracked post sent from Gorseinon or Pontarddulais arrives at our Bristol location (Bristol Data Recovery, Castlemead, Lower Castle Street, Bristol BS1 3AG) the very next working day. If you prefer, you can drop a device off there, Monday to Friday, 9am to 5:30pm, with no appointment needed. We receive packages both from the trading units and the new estates. After the free diagnostic has been carried out, which is done within 2 working days of the arrival of your package, we will send one fixed written price quotation prior to attempting anything else.
Regardless of whether it's a business or home related issue, the rules hold: on logical recoveries, in most cases you only pay if we recover your data. We charge 50% upfront for all bench work that is done on damaged drives. Forensic class work (including CCTV recorder disks) will also require payment prior to commencement of service. Smart phones and tablets along with soldered-to-the-board storage are excluded from this service. If you have an urgent commercial failure please flag it by calling us on 0800 689 0668 so we can prioritise it on arrival.
First get a quote over the telephone or use our free on-line diagnostic. The majority of customers then have their media sent to us via post, this is tracked and insured.
Do you want to send a drive from your computer, laptop, MacBook, iMac, CCTV / DVR or server? Please do not send the complete unit of computer or device with a hard disk drive (HDD) or solid state drive (SSD) inside. Please remove it and only send the drive itself. For a server, please remove all disks and label them by their bay. We will also not perform removal of internal drives from devices in order to access data. Also, we will not extract data from devices where storage is soldered onto the motherboard (such as T2 and Apple Silicon Macs and some thin laptops). Additionally, we do not recover data from phones and tablets, only drives that can be removed and sent to us. If you're not sure which kind you have, ring us first.
