Fields recovered the data and saved it to an external drive and sent me my original drives back. In the end, I got what I paid for. Now the rest of it... don't pay for expedited service. I did and I still had to wait 5 weeks to get my data back. They told me it was the drives fault and they had to use a second set of parts to get the drive to read. This was after the 10 business days of the expiated services of course. I had to frequently email the company to get updates. They are not good w/ keeping you updated on their own. They did respond to email within 24 hours, most of the time the same day. They are really persistent with making sure you pay them thier money, will call you every hour if you need to make arrangements to get some money together. It was expensive. The website estimates... forget that. 3x the website estimates, easy. They have a charge for everything. The cost is non-refundable, even if they can't recover your data. It feels like a gamble when you make the deal, but for some, the data is worth it. In my case, it was worth it. Some of the data recovered was gibberish. Most of the pictures were intact but some were put back together in the wrong order. Like the data was puzzled together just any old way. But that is because of the raid failing. The data is paired on 2 drives and one got corrupted. That isn't Field's fault, just telling you what I had happen to me. Almost all of the word and pdf and excel documents were intact tho. Nothing had the original names on it, they give you back raw data. All the files are just simply numbered names and the folder structure is gone so all the files are just all lumped into one raw data folder. You'll have to go through each and every one and rename them. That was a pain, but again, the data was there for the most part. So there you have it. The good and the bad. These guys are expensive but the data was worth it to be recovered. If you want my advice, pay for Crashplan or Carbonite data backup service. It's way cheaper than data recovery!! You have been warned.

I sent in a hard drive that had a minor fall and still appeared physically fine, though the data was inaccessible. After several updates over a few days, I was eventually informed that the data could not be recovered due to alleged platter damage. I was also told that, because the case was classified as a "stage five engineering repair," the payment would not be refunded. This outcome was disappointing and did not align with my understanding of their stated policy, so I would encourage others to review the terms carefully.

The process was so exasperating that, at one point, one of their employees actually asked if I wanted to cancel our shredding service with Iron Mountain. I remember thinking, "What a wonderful idea, let's just cancel everything!" I cannot stress enough how little I would recommend Iron Mountain to anyone, especially for document storage. I would warn them that if they ever needed access to their records, they should be prepared to wait about a month and endure endless headaches. To make matters worse, our office hours are clearly stated on several of their documents (Monday through Thursday from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM), yet Iron Mountain scheduled deliveries for 5:00 PM on a Friday twice! On another occasion, they arranged a Thursday delivery for 5:00 PM, so we stayed open until 5:15, only for no one to show up. I have truly never been more aggravated or disappointed by a company.
