I finally got tired of treating my laptop like something out of Jurassic Park, so I decided to have a professional take a look. It took the gentleman at the counter about two minutes to figure out what was wrong with my computer, explain it to me, and get a solution started! Turns out I need an original Toshiba charger, and they could order one for me right then. (Don't buy replacement chargers, it's not worth it!) I can finally use my laptop like a regular person, and it charges great. They were friendly, fast and solved my problem perfectly!

Overall 5 stars.

Well they did not & 60% of my data was gone. I was devastated for days until my wife suggested a third party repair shop. I reached out to a couple businesses and after speaking to Eric with iFixit, I thought it was worth a try. What did I have to lose? I dropped off my time capsule that apple told me I had completely erased due to holding the reset button in for 10 seconds (they also couldn't pull up any info off of it). They said it requires a network to operate and access the data which they could not do. Well Eric opened the hard drive and was able to directly access the files. I was amazed and so happy. Since the files are scattered he suggested I bring in my iMac and attempt to complete a restore of data which would put the files in the correct location. Eric was right and completely saved my digital life! I am forever grateful to them and his hard work. I was surprised at how reasonable the work cost too. Definitely give them a shot for any data recovery issues you may be facing. They know the "ins and outs".

So, my experience with these guys was a total accident. I wasn't expecting to need their services…read morebut I'm not only super happy with the results of the end-products, I'm also very relieved they were the ones to holistically take on my project. I was putting together a new computer build for school. The component list was completely high-end and involved an AIO (all in one) water cooling solution with a 360mm radiator and an AIO water cooled graphics card with a 120mm radiator. In addition, I had two M.2 drives with custom EK heat sinks and an NZXT "i' series case with their smart hub for fan and lighting control along with several other custom parts. I was recently diagnosed with a form of bone cancer and underestimated how badly the treatments I've been receiving would effect my fine motor control and ended up bricking a Gigabyte AORUS motherboard by dropping my CPU and crushing several pins. At that point I was feeling pretty dejected and wasn't sure if I would be able to put my computer together without damaging some VERY expensive hardware components. I was seriously upset with myself, mad at the totality of the circumstances surrounding the situation, and generally upset. I had seen Extreme Micro a few times in my intermittent goings to the Japanese food place in which they occupy the same plaza and figured I'd stop in to see if they offered a build service. I met Grant, the guy who is their usual customer contact for product and services, and was also affectionately and distantly barked at by Odin (their shop dog who hangs out in the back of the shop - this has nothing to do with my project experience but made my happy because I'm a big dog person) as I walked inside. Grant informed me they were more than capable of handling my build and provided a cost structure and possible time frame for project completion. I dropped off the components within the next few hours. There were a few hiccups along the way (because I had some faulty RAM and was missing a cable the factory forgot to package along with my CPU AIO) but both Grant and Scott (their principal system builder) kept me informed of what was going on so that I could swap out the parts necessary to give Scott what he needed to finish the project. They have a really cool email ticket correspondence system that they update with major project milestones and use it if they need to reach out to a customer. I thought it was helpful to watch my email for updates and to keep apprised of what was happening with my build. Due to the complexity of my system and the hardware hiccups (that were unfortunately normal RMA issues in the PC world and had nothing to do with Scott or the Extreme Micro guys) it took about a week to get the call that my computer was completed. In the realm of PC building this is actually pretty remarkable but they're used to pushing out projects much faster. All in all the technician hours that went into my build totaled enough to make compilation labor quite expensive (like they could have charged me several hundreds of dollars and probably should have) but instead honored the price that Grant quoted for me as an estimate when I first dropped off my parts. THAT is amazing. Back to my computer; it turned out INSANE. And the best type of insane I've ever experienced in the full technological tenure of my life. Like full PC Master Race insane. Scott is not only a cable management god but he also installed windows and all my drivers, conducted any and all updates and made sure the platform was stable and ready to go before releasing it to me. My experience was obviously the above: from a pile of high end components, my shattered ego, and pent of frustrations of not being able to handle my build myself, to being surprised by the nicest looking computer build I've ever been lucky enough to own and I can genuinely say it wouldn't have turned out this well if I did it myself. And with all the technical hiccups that occurred I probably would have ended up conducting a similar google search to pay them to troubleshoot the errors I probably would have made anyway. I seriously couldn't be happier with my experience with Extreme Micro or the product I received. If for some reason you've made it to the end of this review, don't think twice about giving them a call and procuring ANY of their IT services. They can handle anything from data recovery and system optimization to managing IT for companies of several hundred employees. And they're all really good people. And Odin. Thanks, Extreme Micro.
