Take care out there, y'all. For the first time in 28 years, I found myself alone at sea with a couple of tech issues that were increasingly problematic. Nerds in a Flash arrived late on a day that I was tightly scheduled and asked for considerably more than they had originally estimated (exactly the same job/problem I had described to them)... but redeemed themselves by cheerfully solving my problem and agreeing to the original estimate. Would I hire them again? You bet, but I recommend that you have them come in on a day that you have a flexible schedule, because your own time pressures are demonstrably unimportant to them.

Tom did a fantastic job of recovering all of the data from both drives. He kept us up-to-date on progress. Checked with us to verify that what he was seeing was the data my wife needed. He even tried some things after he had recovered the data to see if he could figure out why her PC might not be booting. Tom is professional, knowledgeable and prompt. He told us what he was hoped to do and then he did it. Tom absolutely went above and beyond for my wife and I at a time she was extremely stressed out about the situation. I recommend him 100% and would not hesitate to use his services again. 5 stars for sure!!!! Thanks Tom!!!!

If you are needing a hard drive/HDD recovered, Tom/IT Data Recovery is the place to go…read more On Saturday 01/07, my 4TB WD HDD with 8 years worth of videos and photos wonked out. Most importantly, I had almost 1TB of honeymoon photos and videos that hadn't been backed up. I googled "hard drive recovery Austin," which led me to Tom at IT Data Recovery! After reading his (well-deserved) glowing reviews on Yelp & Google, I reached out to Tom around 11:45PM via Yelp to provide full details of the situation. To my amazement, Tom responded back at 12:15AM and let me know to call in the morning. I was grateful for Tom's speedy and accommodating response since Google showed that his business is closed on Saturdays and Sundays. On Sunday 01/08, Tom & I spoke on the phone. He was honest and upfront with the pricing, provided realistic expectations of what ITDR can do, gave us the go-ahead to drop off the HDD at his office, and provided detailed guidance on how to find the office. I also had a lot of questions that Tom was more than patient enough to answer! The drop-off took no more than 10 minutes. Tom asked us which folders in the HDD were a priority (in case it crashed mid-cloning). For me - it was the Honeymoon and Hawaii folders; everything else was second priority. Throughout the following week, Tom provided progress updates via phone & e-mail. As an anxious person, it was reassuring that he was super communicative! Tom also shared with us a recovery agreement to sign via e-mail. On Monday 01/16, Tom let us know that he was able to recover perfect copies of the Hawaii & Honeymoon videos and 99.9%+ of the sectors after the repairs and multi-pass cloning. On Wednesday 01/18 (10 days after drop-off), we picked up our recovered data. Tom placed them in a 5TB portable USB drive that was compatible for both Mac and PC. Tom reminded us to make copies of the backup and let us know that ITDR has the data backed up for 30 days in case something went wrong after pick up (e.g., if it was dropped or mishap with the transfer process). If you are uncomfortable with that, you can also let him know via e-mail to wipe the data earlier. Payment was quick and easy, and Tom sent us a receipt via e-mail afterwards. Overall, everything from beginning to end was super professional and efficient. I highly recommend Tom & ITDR!

We bought a refurbished Dell computer from this business after our older refurbished Dell machine…read moredied. They transferred our data to this newer machine, installing Windows 11, which resulted in a common problem: only one of us (the original "administrator") could now open their documents. When we went back for help on this issue, the Repair Connection specialist washed his hands from it. He'd been paid already. Beyond that point he didn't seem to care. We ended up finding Frankenstein in North Austin, quite far from our home, but oh, such a difference in expertise and attitude! Problem solved, first trying to fix it remotely and failing, then taking old and new computer to Frankenstein. I do not intend to return to Computer Repair Connection. Maybe Frankenstein will open a branch in South Austin in the future. I would love to have that happen. Sara
