Data

Data is the most important part of your computer........ How valuable is this to you or in the hands of someone else?

Here at Lawson Computer repair we can implement a variety of data solutions:

Backup: Hard drive re-configuration, a RAID system and advice on remote storage and backup software that suits you best.

Recovery: Data can be retrieved using specialist programs and procedures from  different  kinds of media including magnetic & optical drives, flash memory, pen drives and SD cards. If  data has  been accidentally deleted it is recommended that the user does not save any further work to minimise the destruction of overwriting.

Sterilisation: Sensitive & personal data embedded on hard drives can be retrieved even after deletion or formatting, sterilisation removes this data cleaning the hard drive beyond retrieval, leaving you with confidence that data can’t be replicated.

Transfer: Important documents and settings can be transferred to any new medium after upgrading, and/or data recovery procedures.
