My hard drive crashed and would not boot up. I tried boot disks, recovery disks, fixing Windows, restoring Windows, reinstalling Windows, etc. I installed a brand new hard drive with Windows and tried to access the crashed drive as a second drive. I tried a recovery software. I bought a drive adapter and hooked the broken drive up externally. Nothing worked and nothing would access the crashed drive. All options exhausted, I shipped it to $300 Data Recovery and in a week had a new drive with... Read More »

Thank you for recovering my data! I couldn't be more pleased with $300 Data Recovery. The courteous team, the quick responses and most of all explaining the issues in layman's term. Brian was patient and very understanding. I was told up front what to expect. I followed their instructions on how to send the data to them and they returned it back to me the same way. They didn't cut corners and the turn around time was faster than I had expected. Then when I opened what was sent back to me, it... Read More »

I thought i'd have to live without a main 1tb drive that died when a local tech took 2 weeks & $250 but COULD NOT FIX IT. The local tech then recommended a $500-$1500 service with NO guaranties. So I searched online for data recovery service off an on for a year before i found $300 Data Recovery. Frankly I was a bit nervous sending a brand new blank drive and my old busted drive across country. Since $300 seemed like miracle compared to others that were ALWAYS out of my price range. But...

So I'm a smart computer drive. Backup regularly etc... So it came time to buy a new computer, and my backup drive had everything on it - from every drive for the last 20 years. (Yes I had the older drives.) This was a new drive of about 6 months - a reputable name too. So I shut down my old computer for the last time. I connect the back up driver to the new computer. And nothing. Dead. The drive spun just fine. It showed power. But all the data was inaccessible. All my current projects, pho... Read More »

I really appreciated the tracking of my order from the moment they received my hard drive to the shipment of the finished data recovery was outstanding! A step by step email was sent to keep me informed of the progress of the work. Work was as the company states on their website without any "hidden" costs. Truly exceeded my expectations and I would definitely recommend them! Read More »

I have not been this "WOWED" by a company in a very long time. $300 Data Recovery has the best customer service in the business! (I know, I've tried others.) Not only did they successfully recover all of my data from my crashed hard drive, but they also sent me daily emails to advise me of their progress. The turn-around time was a week! I couldn't be more pleased with the whole package. I happily rate them five stars. Read More »

After another service charged me $99 to tell me they wanted another $700-$1200 to recover data, I decided to send the disc to $300 Data Recovery, based only on what I found online. So glad I did! Couldn't be happier! They kept me informed each step of the way, advised they could recover 99.994% of the sectors -- then did it at the price stated and had a new disc with the data on it back to me in just a few days. Hope I never need this service again, but if I do $300 Data Recovery is the fir... Read More »

I was very happy with the service provided by $300 Data Recovery. They promptly delivered an accurate quote including the odds of a successful recovery. All terms and prices were reasonable and easy to understand. $300 DR quickly recovered 100% of my data and explained what had gone wrong with my drive. The company delivered all of my data back on a new drive. Throughout the entire process, $300 DR was professional and responsive to my questions. I would have preferred if they had delivered...

Don't overpay! Don't waste your time with other companies! Use $300 Data Recovery first. The company that initially tried to recover the files on my dead hard drive couldn't do it. I then proceeded to get about a hundred estimates from every possible data recovery company. The estimates ranged from $600 to a few thousand. Not a single of those companies could tell me what chances I had of actually getting my data recovered. Then I found $300 Data Recovery. They told me that I had 80% chance... Read More »

I would use $300 Data Recovery next time if I need such service without thinking twice. I really appreciate their hard work to get it done in very short period of time which was also important to me. Thank you! Read More »

My hard drive would no longer boot up. I took the hard drive to Staples to retrieve the data. I had to pay a diagnostic fee of 70.00. I received a phone call two days later informing me that my hard drive was damaged and I would have to take it to a cleaning room. If I would have had this done by Staples they informed me that it would cost 2,500.00. I took the hard drive to two other businesses. I had to pay a diagnostic fee and both businesses informed me that my hard drive needed to be ta... Read More »

When our external hard drive malfunctioned, we first had our regular computer repair guy try to repair it. However when he was unsuccessful, I decided to take it to $300 data recovery (which I had found online). We dropped off our external hard drive late Friday afternoon, not only was it ready for pick up on Monday but they were able to recover ALL the data!! Would definitely recommend them to anyone!

If there was a way to give 10 stars to a company, We would give them to Elite Mac Techs! I found Elite Mac Techs on Yelp. They had ALL five star reviews and let me tell you, they deserve every one of them. One of our offices had a drive failure in an iMac that was used for customer invoicing. The only backup was several months old (another story) and without this computer functioning, the office was dead in the water. They diagnosed the computer as having a dead drive and then started the... Read More »

Worse, my back-up was problematic and my Time Machine (second back-up) had also failed. Major disaster! Major freak-out! I took it to $300 Data recovery first thing the next morning, and four hours later they had recovered all my data!! Not only was I amazed by the quick service, excellent price, and great results, their customer service was exemplary. Nath... Read More »

It's one thing to see great deals from businesses these days; the problem is that those deals are rarely what they appear, and most the time you're left with feelings of disappointment and annoyance that you didn't quite get what you thought you were getting. This usually occurs after you've committed. You only find out later, that through some sort of fine print, or details that were not previously covered that you actually have to pay more, wait longer, etc. What blows me away about $300 Da...

However, 76% could have been recovered. Since I wanted all my data I've been referred to an other great place and my HDD is on the way already from them. I had to pay the shipping only. No data - no charge. Very honest company! Read More »

The $300 Data Recovery website explained how they manage to do this and I took the risk. WOW. It works. 100% of my data was recovered. Not only were the results fantastic, the process was thorough, thoughtful and efficient. Mailing in several year of data is a frightening proposition. But these people told me w... Read More »

Before hiring Brian, I'd tried other "reputable" services that enticed with low prices only to call me after evaluating the disc to say that it needed more in-depth (clean room) treatment which, of course, was a lot more money. I was very pleasantly surprised when Brian emailed me saying "your data recovery is done". No BS. No extortion. A stand-up guy. KM Portland OR/Huntington Beach CA Read More »

DEAD HARD DISK DRIVE - Brian's the real thing! I got several price quotes from all the usual (and unusual) suspects out there for $500 & up - some with an upfront, non-refundable payment for "diagnosing the problem." Brian Cometa didn't play any of those games. "Send it," he says. "If I can recover the data, I'll do it for 300 bucks." No hidden crap, no surprises. He was easy to contact, and easy to do business with. I am happily surprised by his genuineness and I hope he continues to be ava... Read More »

I have had to use him 3 times for 2 different computers and each time I have been more than satisfied. He recently tuned-up my Mac and it is now blazing fast. Even if you live in Hollywood or the West side it's worth the drive. I'd give him more stars if I could - 10 stars from me.

"As good as it gets" is accurate. I had a hard disk crash in a mysterious way, and wasted $50 on a local drive recovery outfit. They referred me to a clean-room facility that 1) without seeing or clarifying what happened to the drive, quoted me $900; and 2) drove a hard sale by trying to scare me into only using them since I would "definitely" need a clean-room facility. Luckily, this b.s. stank enough even for me to detect it. Some friends in LA recommended Brian to me, and once I contacted... Read More »

I didn't want the hassle of sending the HD or wait in line and fill out forms. After I dropped off the HD, he got the job done in <3 hours. Highly recommend him for crashed HD. Nice guy too. This is what small business is supposed to be like. Thanks Brian. Read More »
