When I checked it via TestDisk on macOS, the HDD appeared as 0 bytes / 0 GiB, indicating a much deeper disk or partition-level issue. It turned out the PCB was damaged, the translator was corrupted, and two heads were misaligned. Despite the severe damage, Kotar successfully recovered 100% of my data, and I am incredibly happy to have everything back. I trusted them from the start because of their "no data, no charge" policy. What makes them even better is that they are a trustworthy, local business right here in San Jose. Unlike many of the large data recovery services, you don't have to mail your drive away to some random location. If you need data recovery, look no further than Kotar!

Geek Squad told me the hard drive was corrupted and that the data recovery would be complicated and expensive. Several places wanted me to ship my PC to them either via FedEx or an Uber service. Call me old school, but I'd very much prefer to lay eyes on the person who is going to be digging around in my sensitive files. Every other place I contacted quoted upwards of $1500 just to attempt recovery. I was about to just have my meltdown and then start from scratch on a new machine. Then I found CJ's Yelp page--and I instantly knew he was the right person. I've been surrounded by tech guys my whole life (past boyfriends, my husband, my son, and my father-all in tech), so I know a good one when I meet one. CJ is the tech guy whose card you want readily available. Put his # in your phone, stick his card to your forehead...whatever you need to do to remember who to call in a PC crisis. I trusted CJ with my most important device, and he did the impossible--he got everything back. Not just some of it. All of it. Documents, photos, irreplaceable files--recovered with care, precision, and professionalism. His pricing is incredibly fair, his communication is excellent, and his service is beyond top-notch. Before you even think about going to Best Buy, call CJ. You'll be so glad you did. Thank you so much, CJ!

I am in the professional services industry myself and can confidently say, this is not how you act if you want your business to thrive.
