Data loss situations we handle
Stop using the device as soon as you notice a problem. Continuing to write to it is the single most common reason data becomes unrecoverable.
Drive not detected
The disk does not appear in Windows, macOS or the BIOS. Often a controller or connection fault where the platters and data are perfectly intact.
Clicking or beeping hard disk
A mechanical fault. Switch it off immediately, because every extra minute of spinning can scratch the platters and destroy data permanently.
Accidentally deleted or emptied trash
Deleted files usually still exist until overwritten. The faster you stop using the drive, the higher the recovery rate.
Formatted or reinstalled by mistake
A quick format does not erase the data itself. In many cases the full folder structure can be rebuilt.
Laptop or MacBook will not boot
If the machine is dead but the drive is healthy, we pull the data out first and discuss the repair afterwards.
Corrupt partition or RAW drive
Windows asking you to format a drive that used to work normally is usually a file-system fault, not a data loss.
Water or fire damaged devices
Recovery is possible in many cases. Do not attempt to dry and power the device yourself, as that is what usually finishes it off.
Tally, accounts and business data
Corrupted TallyPrime company data, QuickBooks files, Excel ledgers and server shares recovered and verified before handover.
Data recovery cost in Mumbai
Data recovery is priced by the type of fault, not by how badly you need the files. Evaluation is always free and you only pay if we show you your data.
| Case type | Indicative range | Turnaround |
|---|---|---|
| Evaluation and recoverability report | Free | Same day – 1 day |
| Deleted or formatted file recovery | ₹2,000 – ₹5,000 | 1 – 2 days |
| Corrupt partition or RAW drive recovery | ₹2,500 – ₹6,000 | 1 – 3 days |
| Non-detecting hard disk (electronic fault) | ₹4,000 – ₹9,000 | 2 – 4 days |
| Clicking or mechanical hard disk failure | ₹8,000 – ₹22,000 | 3 – 7 days |
| SSD or NVMe recovery | ₹5,000 – ₹18,000 | 3 – 7 days |
| MacBook soldered SSD recovery | ₹6,000 – ₹20,000 | 3 – 7 days |
| Pen drive or memory card recovery | ₹1,800 – ₹6,000 | 1 – 3 days |
| RAID, NAS or server recovery | Quoted after evaluation | 3 – 10 days |
Physically damaged drives that need a clean-room parts transplant sit at the top of these ranges. We tell you the realistic probability of success before you commit.
How data recovery works at Apex52
- Bring the device in, powered offDo not run recovery software on a failing drive and do not keep retrying. Both reduce your chances.
- Free evaluationWe identify whether the fault is logical or physical and how much of the drive is readable.
- Sector-by-sector cloneWherever possible we clone the drive first and work on the clone, so your original is never risked.
- File list and quoteYou see exactly which files and folders came back, and the price, before you pay anything.
- Handover on your mediaRecovered data is copied to a drive you provide or one you buy from us, and verified with you present where possible.
- Secure deletionOnce you confirm you have everything, your data is removed from our systems.
Why trust Apex52 with your data
- You see the recoverable file list before you pay. No blind payments.
- No recovery, no fee. If your files do not come back, there is no recovery charge.
- Cloning-first approach, so recovery attempts never happen on your only copy.
- Confidential handling of financial, legal, medical and personal data, and secure deletion after handover.
- We also repair the machine, so you are not shuttling between a recovery lab and a repair shop.
- Honest odds. If a drive has been running with a mechanical fault for weeks, we will say so instead of taking your money.
What to do the moment you notice data loss
Power the device off and leave it off. If a hard disk is clicking, beeping or grinding, every additional spin-up risks further platter damage. If you have accidentally deleted files, stop saving anything to that drive, because new writes overwrite the very sectors that still hold your files.
Do not install recovery tools onto the affected drive, do not run repair utilities that write to the disk, and do not open the drive casing yourself. A drive that arrives untouched is dramatically cheaper and more likely to recover than one that has been through three attempts already.
Protecting yourself next time
After every recovery we set customers up so it does not happen twice. That usually means a simple three-part routine: an automatic backup to an external drive, a second copy in cloud storage, and for businesses a scheduled TallyPrime and document backup that someone actually checks each month.
If you run a business in Mumbai and your accounts sit on one laptop, ask us about a backup routine while your machine is with us. It costs very little compared with the recovery you have just paid for.
Data recovery questions
How much does data recovery cost in Mumbai?
Deleted and formatted file recovery typically costs ₹2,000 to ₹5,000, non-detecting hard disks ₹4,000 to ₹9,000, mechanically failed drives ₹8,000 to ₹22,000 and SSD or MacBook recovery ₹5,000 to ₹20,000. Evaluation at Apex52 is free and you see the file list before paying.
Can data be recovered from a hard disk that is not detected?
Usually yes. A drive that is not detected often has an electronic or controller fault while the data itself is untouched, which is one of the higher success-rate cases we handle.
Can you recover data from a dead MacBook?
Yes. On most MacBooks the storage can be read even when the machine will not power on. On models with a soldered SSD we read the memory directly at chip level.
My hard disk is making a clicking noise. What should I do?
Switch it off immediately and do not power it on again. Clicking indicates a mechanical fault, and every further spin-up risks permanent damage to the platters where your data lives.
Can data be recovered after formatting?
Often yes. A standard quick format only clears the index, not the data, so files can frequently be rebuilt as long as nothing significant has been written to the drive since.
Do you charge if the data cannot be recovered?
No. Apex52 works on a no recovery, no fee basis, and the evaluation is free.
Is my data kept confidential?
Yes. Data is handled privately, never copied elsewhere, and securely deleted from our systems once you confirm you have received everything.
How long does data recovery take?
Logical cases usually take one to two days. Physical faults, SSDs and RAID sets take three to seven days because the drive has to be cloned carefully before anything else.
