Disk Drive Forensics FAQs
Can deleted files be recovered from a formatted drive?
In many cases, yes. Data often remains until overwritten. Success depends on how much new data has been written and whether the drive uses TRIM (SSDs). Contact us immediately for the best recovery chances.
What types of drives can you analyze?
We analyze HDDs, SSDs, NVMe drives, external USB drives, RAID arrays, flash drives, SD cards, and legacy media including floppy disks and optical drives from all manufacturers.
How long does a forensic examination take?
Drive imaging takes 4 to 12 hours depending on capacity. Full analysis and reporting typically takes one to three weeks. Expedited services are available for urgent matters.
What should I do before contacting a forensics specialist?
Stop using the affected device immediately. Do not power it on or off, and do not attempt recovery yourself. Secure the device and call us at 919-348-4912 for proper evidence handling guidance.
