Data Recovery
Macroware Systems recover data from damaged, failed, corrupted or inaccessible storage media. Logical or software damage to a file system is far more common than physical damage is, and data recovery is possible without the need of clean room facilities. We offer a set price, completely free diagnosis and a no recovery - no fee policy. We recover passwords, documents, emails, photos, music, video & application data files on site in the Sydney area. Bring your computer to our workshop or have it picked up from your work or home.
