Today, digital technology plays a major role in our daily lives. The shift to digital data, documents and resources has gradually become a natural trend in the workplace. It is far easier to consult, search for or share a digital file than a paper document. What’s more, every day we generate resources that are just as convenient to share, store or organise.
Unfortunately, it is precisely because handling this data is so simple and natural that we don’t always think to back it up or secure it.
At Chronodisk, we are fully aware of this, which is why we offer a rigorous data recovery service in Nantes.
How does data recovery become necessary?
It very often happens when you least expect it. Every day, you use devices equipped with highly sensitive electronic systems. Desktop and laptop computers, tablets, smartphones and cameras all offer various types of storage: from servers to hard drives, not to mention USB sticks or SD memory cards. All these storage media hold data of every type and format.
However, the temperatures they are exposed to, the repeated knocks they take or even the way they are moved around can affect the lifespan of your storage devices.
And then one day, without warning, you can no longer access the contents of these devices. Your smartphone stops responding, a power surge has damaged your computer, you plug in your hard drive or USB stick and it isn’t recognised, the main server stops responding. It may also simply be that you make a mistake and accidentally delete files that should not have been deleted. A moment’s inattention, a slightly too hasty clean-up, and there you have it!
Imagine the disaster! Digital archives containing your company’s accounts spanning several years, a general database corrupted by a virus, your wedding photos that you hadn’t yet had printed, recordings of your children’s competitions or recitals… All of it is now inaccessible! Yes, inaccessible, but not necessarily lost forever. Chronodisk is here to recover this precious content, in Nantes.
Recovering your data: a job for professionals! Destination Nantes!
If you find yourself in a situation like this, above all, you should remember a few fundamental principles.
First of all, in the case of accidental deletion, you must under no circumstances copy new data onto the device that contained your precious files. Even if you can no longer see your files, they are probably still there.
Data recovery is not something to improvise. Don’t entrust this task to just anyone, and don’t attempt to do it yourself. It is strongly advised against attempting to use software available for free online. These are not powerful enough resources for a proper recovery.
Data recovery is a delicate operation that only professionals or dedicated laboratories such as Chronodisk, in Nantes, can successfully carry out with the support of cutting-edge technology. The information you have lost is sometimes sensitive, private, and you have no wish to see it end up online. You therefore need the backing of a team of experts you can trust! At Chronodisk, in Nantes, we guarantee the confidentiality of your data!
How do we work at Chronodisk, in Nantes?
We are a rigorous team backed by 15 years of expertise. This means we have already proven our skills on every type of media, notably thanks to an exclusive magnetic mapping method.
Our processing steps are specifically designed to offer you the best possible service.
Our intake process is transparent and simple :
- You start by getting in touch with our team. An advisor will welcome you and carry out an initial informal assessment of the situation. Our premises are open Monday to Friday, but we also have an emergency unit that you can reach 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
- To take charge of your device, you will need to send it to us. This can be done by post (after careful packaging), in person at our site in Nantes, or possibly via collection (appointment-only option, available only in mainland France).
- Once received, we analyse your device and assess the fault free of charge.
- We then draw up a quote which we submit for your approval.
- Once the quote has been accepted, we process your device and proceed with recovering your files.
- Once the operation is complete, we send you a list of the files or data we were able to recover.
- You then settle payment for the service in full.
- We close your case by sending you your newly recovered data.
And that’s it! That’s how every recovery operation works at Chronodisk, in Nantes.
