Tape Recovery - Data Recovery

Data Recovery from Tape.

Recovering data from tapes involves first getting an binary image of the tape. We do this using our own software so as to get the best image possible.

Once we have the tape image, we then work out the software that was used to create the backup tape.

Again we have written our own backup recovery software so that we can get the maximum amount of data from the tape.

We are able to recover data from all types of tape including:
AIT,  DAT, DDS, DLT, LTO, QIC, SAIT, SDLT, Travan, Ultrium and most other tape formats.

We are also able to recover from most backup software on all platforms. For more information please check out out our Tape Recovery pages.

Laptop Data Recovery

A large number of computers sold are laptop computers. They are light and portable. Modern laptops contain very large hard disks at the time of writing this article 500Gb are often seen here for data recovery. One of the most common problems we see are drives where the heads have crashed. The main cause is actually part of the design of the computer - remember the bit where I said 'they are light and portable'? It is easy to put the computer on your lap, then when you need to get up, lift the computer up and put it to one side. This movement can cause a head crash especially if the heads are reading or writing at the time. Most manuals that we have seen recommend putting the computer on a firm surface like a desk or a table and in fact NOT putting it on your lap - strange that they are called 'laptops' when it is not recommended to use them as such. Some manufacturers have developed hardware that detects when the computer is being moved and pulls the heads to a saf...

Data recovery from Toshiba Hybrid Drives.

Data Recovery from Toshiba Hybrid Drives. After months of research we have finally cracked the Toshiba Hybrid SSD problems. Searching through reams of code resulted with a list of commands that enables us to manipulate the firmware on the SSD-side of these drives. Codes to modify the hard disk side are well known throughout the DR trade, but problems with Hybrid drives usually result with unrecoverable drives. For MJM Data Recovery that is no longer the case, we are are able to recover data from these drives that usually show as three types of failure. The drive does not spin. The drive spins but hangs the computer The drive spins and give ID but data can not be accessed. The problem is determined by the symptoms, but we can reset SMART for the SSD-side of the drive, reset SSD-side cache and when necessary completely reset the NAND. We recover for end users, IT companies and other Data Recovery companies. For more information please see this Data Recovery - Toshiba Hyb...
