Shipping your media for data recovery or digital forensic services

Shipping your media correctly is a critical part of ensuring that your data remains recoverable.

Below are a number of important tips you should follow when packaging your media for shipment:

1. SUBMIT YOUR PROJECT

Shipping your media

Fill out the online data recovery form, sign it, and include it along with your package when shipping your media to Capital Data Recovery Inc.

Please, sign it, and include the form with your package when shipping your media to us.

2. PREPARE THE MEDIA FOR SHIPPING
Package your media in ESD, anti-static bags, or a zip-lock bag. Avoid touching the circuit board or electrical connectors when handling the hard drive.

Use a foam or a double layer of bubble wrap around the hard drive or a solid drive. Pack hard drive in a suitable shipping carton with a minimum of 2 inches packing material between the drive and carton.

We don’t suggest using the shipping “peanuts” as the drive might become loose while transportation and get damaged.

3. SHIP YOUR MEDIA TO OUR DATA RECOVERY LAB

Capital Data Recovery Inc.
1827 Woodward Drive, Unit 306
Ottawa ON K2C 0P9
Canada

If possible, use a shipping service with tracking capabilities. For faster service, use overnight or 2nd-day service.

4. CONTACT US
Contact us once the drive is shipped and let us know the tracking number (if applicable).

Once your media is received and evaluated, you will be contacted by phone or email.

    Capital Data Recovery provided outstanding service. They are very professional, very kind, and of course, very skilled at what they do. I had damaged my hard-drive by accidentally giving it too much electric … More power. They were able to recover the data and transfer it to another drive within a matter of days. Plus they offer expedited service for an extra fee if you need your repairs done urgently.
    I trusted them with my super important data and I am happy with this decision. I would highly recommend Capital Data Recovery.

    We brought a corrupted hard drive to Capital Data Recovery last week. This hard drive contained thousands of family photos that were very important to us. Levon gave us an estimate (which he honoured although … More the scope of work increased as he got into the drive) and very quickly was able to recover 100% of our photos. Very impressive, highly recommended. You get what you pay for...how much are your memories worth?

    I brought my damaged external hard drive in based on a "word of mouth" recommendation to Capital Data Recovery and I'm glad I did. Not only were they successful at recovering the data but … More they were very honest and upfront about me managing the expectations with the job- that some files might not be able to be recovered. Professional, educational and friendly. Thank you!
