    Worked with a customer who used these guys, they recovered 100% of the data on a proprietary constructed drive from the early 1980's in a one of a kind system and it was only like 20MB of storage. This was in 2011 and DriveSavers just stripped down the drive to the raw platters and mounted them on a custom spindel rig to read the 1s/0s. Then they analyzed how the drive arranged data on the platters from the chips on the controller and reverse engineered how to read the data and shipped the data back to us on a USB drive. Highly impressed and the recovery of the data save probably 6 months of information that was vital to a new system that was replacing the three decades old system.

Why? I wouldn't pay for example 1000$ to recover a data, cause I prefer to eat, to sleep in warm home and have some things that matters more than data. Of course there are suepr rich people for whom spending 1000$ is nothing, but not everyone is rich. Remember that.

Btw. my "shit hole country" has a higher living standard as well as a higher educational standard than yours, asuming that you are from the USA (which btw. is not "America" by definition and therefor Canadians are also Americans @Deadly SP ;) ) Oh, and Star Gaming, a rant would need someone who rants, what I clearly did not.^^

      @user-tp3ny3zq8l 6 років тому +4

      MIND NOVA yeah, those brands worked with linus many times. This time this company is big and unique, but I think most normal people don't know it, so it is rather a special collabration. just like the previous ones eg quantum computer, nuclear fusion etc

    Ripping the "camera element" out of a phone to "destroy the images" and then "placing it back on the victim" is probably the dumbest, most convoluted shit I've heard haha.
    Basically, once it's in your possession, dispose of it in a way in which data recovery is absolutely impossible. Which honestly is not that difficult.
    All that criminal did was plant his own evidence all over the crime scene.

    • @lilychu979
      @lilychu979 6 років тому

      Yeah, Doesn't matter if it is. If they need for re-install a fresh copy of windows each time, to remove all the possible "Contamination". and you do about 3 to 5 hard-drive recovers a day as an example. There isn't any point for a windows activation. Windows activation doesn't do too much anyway.

    When I used a data recovery service for a company I worked at the cost was $1,500. They don't charge based on the amount of data, in this case it was 8GB, they charge for the operation itself (plus parts.)
