WD Laptop Hard Drive Data Recovery

WD Blue, Black or Scorpio laptop drive failed? We recover data from every 2.5-inch Western Digital drive.

About WD Laptop Hard Drive

Western Digital’s 2.5-inch drives are found in laptops from Dell, HP, Lenovo, Acer and many other brands. Laptops get knocked and dropped, so head damage is the most common fault we see on these drives, followed by bad sectors and slow-response firmware faults.

We replace heads in our clean room using a matched donor drive, then image the disk and recover your files.

How we recover your data

After a free initial consultation, physical faults go through a clean room diagnostic (£79 + VAT). We repair firmware modules or replace damaged heads using a matched donor drive, image the disk with professional PC-3000 equipment and – for encrypted external drives – decrypt the data using the drive’s own key. Your files are checked before they’re returned.

Prices

Initial consultation: Free – tells you whether the fault is physical or logical and the best recovery method. Doesn’t include opening the drive in a clean room or any recovery attempt.
Clean room diagnostic: £79 + VAT – the drive is opened in our clean room to identify the damaged parts.
Physical data recovery on a single drive: £450 + VAT – labour, plus the cost of a donor drive if required.
Deleted files on a standard hard drive: £99 + VAT – includes up to two hours of work.
24 to 48 hours of recovery work: £150 + VAT (1TB) to £250 + VAT (4TB) – for larger or more complex logical recoveries.

All prices exclude VAT. See our full data recovery price list.

Frequently asked questions

Should I send the laptop or just the drive?

Just the drive is fine for most laptops. Send the whole laptop if you’re not sure how to remove it.
