At first I was a bit skeptical especially since I live far away from this place and would be sending my memory card there by mail instead of actually going in person but I called the place and spoke to I believe Larry who explained the whole process to me and made me feel reassured. My memory card was literally broken with missing pieces and there were pictures of numerous trips my parents did to Europe years ago and those pictures were pretty much priceless. I tried everything to try to get them myself but was unsuccessful. I was able to get back pretty much all of the hundreds and hundreds of pictures!! The service was very fast and at a great price. I would definitely use this place again and again no questions asked!! read more

Excellent service! My hard drive suddenly stopped working (I wasn't able to access my files) and it had my entire life on there. I was desperate for a company to recovery my files, and I came across Data Recovery New Jersey. What set them apart from other companies is that they fix hard drives IN HOUSE, meaning they do not ship it out elsewhere to get fixed. I wanted to hand deliver my hard drive directly to the source, and I was able to do that. Larry was great to speak with, he's super knowledgeable and helped me understand the possible issues & how they'd go about repairing it. From speaking via email to meeting in person, he was very thorough and made me feel like my hard drive was in good hands. The repair took around 2 weeks (I wasn't in a rush to get it repaired, I told him it can be put on the back burner as long as it got done). I had him ship my recovered data back ($20 shipping fee, $70 for a new hard drive for him to put my recovered data on), and HALLELUJAH he recovered all my missing files!!!! I am forever grateful to this company, they legitimately brought back all my precious memories. read more

Larry, You are an aficionado. I am so very fortunate to have met you. Your deep understanding of data recovery is evident in how you meticulously approached the task. Larry didn't just recover my data; he did it with such efficiency that I was pleasantly surprised by how quickly he completed the job. What stood out most, aside from his technical prowess, was his fairness in pricing. In an industry where costs can skyrocket, Larry provided top-notch service without breaking the bank. It's rare to find someone who not only excels in their field, but also values fair pricing and transparency. I lost my mommom in 33 days to cancer. I had an SD card go bad that stored my most treasured memories. This SD card stored videos and pictures of me and my mommom meeting Julie Andrews, Mitch Albom, Darci Lynn, Johnny Mathis, and more. We did everything together and loved going to shows and experiences. I traveled over 2 hours to meet Larry with my mom (He offer for us to mail it to him, but I wanted to hand deliver it). When I was told to come pick it up, we reviewed the files together and he had recovered nearly everything. There were a few files missing and Larry offered to keep the SD card and try and recovery the rest. In a few short weeks (I told him to take his time) he did it! Larry recovered all of my data from my SD card. It's not just his skills and fairness that make Larry stand out. His approachability and willingness to explain the process in layman's terms made the entire experience less stressful. He's not just smart; he's also empathetic, understanding the emotional value of the data he recovers. In conclusion, Larry is more than just a data recovery expert; he's a reliable, smart, and fair professional who comes highly recommended. If you find yourself in a data crisis, trust Larry to not only recover your data but also to provide peace of mind during a stressful situation. Again, I cannot thank you enough. read more

Larry is a true wizard. He restored my files that were corrupted on a flash drive. Absolutely remarkable and saved me considerable time and revenue. Don't spend another minute fretting or trying to find someone else. He is your guy. I am so glad I found him. read more

5 stars all the way .. My external hard drive with all my priceless photos of my son had completely stopped working. It could not locate the drive when connected to my laptop. Larry helped us since the moment I contacted them through their email... he wrote a lengthy email with a break down of options I had and what scenarios could happen. Went to the location to drop off the drive and met Larry. He showed me what the inside of a drive and what may have happened. Took about a couple of days with great news that they were able to retrieve all my photos. Larry is a life saver. read more

Fantastic service, I can't recommend them enough! I thought I had lost all of my art files & tons of old photos when my 2TB external drive broke, but Larry was able to recover almost everything. I have a couple of hard drives from my older computers that I'm thinking of taking in as well. read more

Larry is the best at what he does. The professionalism and honesty is greatly appreciated. However I am one happy individual because he was able to retrieve and rescue all my files. Woo hoo I love this place. AAA+ read more

I send all of my computer customers that have drive issues to Larry at NJ Data Recovery. They drop the drive off in person and don't have to worry about it getting lost while being shipped. Everyone was always happy with the results! John Young #1 PC Medic LLC read more

When I thought all was lost, I found Data Recovery. These guys are for real. And so far they've saved my data from 3 hard drives. And they are affordable - less than half of what others quoted. They do all the work on site and it's only a matter of days before you get your data back. I can't say enough about them. Thanks Data Recovery. read more

I'm confused by all of these 5 star reviews. I had the opposite experience. I sent in my drive and never heard back from them. So I sent emails inquiring about my drive. I always received the same response that they were working on my drive but need 140.00 for parts after a month of no communication. Then I wouldn't hear anything for another month until I'd email them again and the process would repeat. The third time I emailed I was just tired of the same story and this time they said that nothing could be recovered, which is what I expected them to say. With all of the hype on their website about levels of data recovery and all of these amazing reviews, I'm not convinced this is the accurate. I still have the original email communications with Larry telling me the drive isn't very bad bc it is still running and it's 95% retrievable. Then I hear nothing and months later it's not retrievable. Sounds suspicious to me. Where are the real reviews? Has anyone else had this issue here? I'm still not convinced they did anything with my drive. They certainly weren't concerned with customer service or communication with me. I did take my drive elsewhere and recovered the data. Not sure what's going on here, sounds like the BBB needs a look. read more

Data Recovery went above and beyond to help our Near-Space Team recover data from an SD card that was included in our high altitude balloon launch in June 2018. The balloon and payload landed in the Long Island Sound where it floated for 27 hours. The entire flight computer was corroded including the SD card, but Data Recovery was able to quickly retrieve the data and send the file out within a few hours! Our students were so excited to find out that they reached 108,395 feet and a temperature of 35 degrees F with their first high altitude balloon launch. Data Recovery was able to provide the last piece to call our HAB Launch a SUCCESS! Thank you for all your help! read more

I had used Data Recovery New Jersey a few years ago and had an excellent experience. So when I had one of my most important hard drives start failing recently, I knew who to turn to immediately. Larry and his team are fast, professional, courteous, and damn good at what they do! They were thorough and clear in their communications with me so I know what they were doing, how long it would take, and what to expect. They recovered every bit of my data. We should all back up our data, but the truth is most people don't. And even those of us who do, sometimes even the backups fail. These guys will be there to get you out of that jam!! read more

Unfortunately they could not help me with my Iphone 6 , but they answered the phone... were knowledgeable and courteous. They also referred me to a business that might be able to help. FOR that I give them a 4 star! I would call them if I had an issue w a laptop or desktop in the future. read more

So I didn't learn my lesson to back up my data. I actually had to get data recovery for a second time. This time it was my usb flash drive that was not recognized by the machine. They were able to recover all my files again and I am very pleased. read more

This place is the best data recovery center you will ever find, professional service and a price that can't be beat

A few months ago, the unthinkable happened to me. My computer fried and I lost everything. Years of my photography, all my music and videos and crucial documents were all lost. I had great intentions of backing up but stupidly kept putting it off. It was beyond devastating. This place was AMAZING and Larry was thorough, knowledgeable and professional. He did the impossible... he recovered all of my data and I'm so happy I could cry. I picked it up today and I'm looking through it and a few photos were corrupted in the crash, but I seriously can't find anything missing! It's all here! I had well over 1 million pictures alone, and in total he recovered 1,651,644 files! As if that's not enough, the price was extremely reasonable. I HIGHLY recommend this place and I'm SO thankful for the stellar job they did! I'll never make the mistake of not backing up again, but I will be sure to spread the word about Data Recovery NJ! read more

Larry is lifesaver! I was working on video art project for past 4 months and saved all files on an external hard drive. On last Friday night, suddenly all of my 3 computers stopped recognizing this. I tried to reach out some recovery places in NYC since I live in Brooklyn. But it was the weekend so most of places just wrote me back saying bringing hard drive to their shop. But Larry at data recovery NJ wrote me clear explanations that made me understand what's going on my external hard drive on Saturday morning while they are not open over the weekends. My husband took it at one of those computer repairing stores in Manhattan. They told that it would cost about $1000, takes 10 days at least and not guarantee. (They were planning to send it to somewhere else to fix it) Larry told me range of prices from minor case to more serious cases. It sounded fair to me and Larry wrote me back very quickly whenever I asked some questions over the weekends. (Although they close on the weekends). I went to drop my HD off on Monday morning although I don't have a car to drive up there, I took a bus (1hr ride from port authority 42st and 5min walk) that normally I wouldn't do that but just because Larry sounded very trustworthy to me. He checked out inside and told me it was reading data bad but he would try his best. The estimated price was definitely less than 1/2 price compared to other places. So I left my HD. On same day, he told me my disc inside of HD box is very rare kind so he said he would order it for me without charge. But it might take extra few days. Then Wednesday (remember I dropped it off on Monday!) they emailed me and told me it's ready to pick up or ship. He said few of files were damaged (I didn't need those and I mentioned it when I went to drop off my HD) but everything what I needed were all recovered. So over 99% successful!! Larry is very very nice guy and does wonderful job. I Highly recommend this place. read more

I bought a new computer. Put all the pictures, files etc etc from the old computer on a flash drive. Everything was good to go. But, I was called away & when I returned to the old computer, I just flipped it over to start taking plugs out. I totally forgot about the flash drive still inserted and it jammed into the computer; a piece of plastic broke off into the drive. I got the piece of plastic out, got the new computer set up-it didn't recognize the flash drive. Tried it on several other computers...still no luck. I contacted several computer fix it places - no one works on flash drives. When I found the website for Data Recovery it was exactly what I was looking for. I called to speak to Larry, explained my problem and he said he would take a look. I mailed the drive to him and quickly got a response that he was working on it. All said & done he was able to retrieve all my files!! I am so thrilled!! It was a quick turn around and a good price to retrieve "priceless" family pictures etc. I totally recommend Data Recovery. read more

My 1TB external hard drive stopped working after I dropped it. The drive was full and contained many photos and files which I needed (I am a professional photographer). I brought the drive to Data Recovery NJ, where they were able to fully recover all my data and transfer it onto a new external hard drive. The cost was extremely reasonable. I highly recommend them for your data recovery needs. read more
