Frequently Asked Questions
How much does Toshiba USB hard drive data recovery cost?
The cost of Toshiba USB hard drive data recovery depends on the specific issue with your drive. We offer a free assessment and provide a transparent quote before any work begins. Pricing is based on the type of failure (logical, electronic, or mechanical), the recovery priority level, and the complexity of the recovery. We provide honest pricing with no hidden costs.
What are common problems with Toshiba Canvio external drives?
Common problems with Toshiba Canvio drives include USB port or cable failures, PCB damage, firmware corruption, and mechanical issues with the drive inside. Canvio models often experience issues where the drive is detected but not accessible, or where it appears as an unformatted drive. These issues are typically repairable with professional data recovery techniques.
Can you recover data from a clicking Toshiba hard drive?
Yes, we can recover data from clicking Toshiba hard drives in most cases. A clicking sound typically indicates a mechanical issue with the read/write heads or other internal components. This requires specialised equipment and a cleanroom environment to repair. We have successfully recovered data from thousands of clicking Toshiba drives, including Canvio, L200, N300, and X300 models.
How long does Toshiba USB hard drive data recovery take?
Most standard Toshiba USB hard drive data recovery cases are completed within 5-7 business days after approval. For urgent cases, we offer priority and emergency services that can reduce turnaround time to 24-48 hours. The exact timeframe depends on the type and severity of damage, as well as the service level you choose.
