What Primary Factors Affect Data Recovery Cost?

  • Hourly expertise: The small size of the data recovery industry and small talent pool makes the industry highly competitive. The hourly rates for a clean room data recovery professional in the US typically cost anywhere from $100 to $300 per hour depending on the location, skill, and educational background of the data recovery engineer.
  • Replacement parts: A professional data recovery company should have a well-stocked library of hard drives to act as donors. However, cases involving rare or very new models of hard drives require engineers to order donor parts. Procuring any donor parts means buying an entirely new hard drive. Imagine if your mechanic couldn’t just buy a new muffler—he had to buy a whole new car as well!
  • Internal media: Instead of working directly on the customer’s hard drive or SD card, our engineers make a copied image of the drive using write-blocked and fault-tolerant forensic imaging technology. The copy has to live somewhere, which means data recovery labs need to account for temporary data storage needs. It’s not uncommon for large RAID arrays to eat up dozens of terabytes of data recovery company disk drive space for several weeks while a server data recovery case is ongoing.
  • Replacement media: Once a customer’s data has been recovered, the engineers must extract it onto a healthy, new storage device and ship it to the customer. We sell destination drives or you can provide one.
  • Quality assurance: Once we have recovered your data we can send you screenshots and other proof of success before you pick up the data.
