    back to LIFE!
    Eubie H.

    Ka is really knowledgeable and passionate about computers. I think I know a bit more than the average Joe, just enought to get myself in trouble, but Ka is an expert. I took in my gaming desktop after I accidentally corrupted the bios on the motherboard trying to do a bios flash update. Unfortunately it's a common issue on the motherboard I had. Ka was super patient and tried manually updating the bios chip with a programmer. He even bought a different kind of connector to see if he could salvage the motherboard. He took the time to explain everything and give me options to get my system working again. Unfortunately, the motherboard was beyond fixing and needed to be upgraded anyways. Ka gave me some good recommendations and what to look for in purchasing a new motherboard. Once I got the new board from Amazon, he pulled out all the parts and put it all back together with the new motherboard. He even upgraded the system to Windows 11. What he charged me for his services was also very reasonable considering the effort he put in to troubleshoot the issue. Super helpful, super knowledgable, definitely recommended!

    Fixed my computer, build, and upgraded.

    Thank you again yet another awesome service. Had issue with my computer and he found out a solution for my problem and fixed it. It's a pleasure always coming here to get assistance with my computer. Will tell my friends and colleagues to come here if they ever need it.

    My MacBook was running very hot and the fans were also so loud. I found this computer shop location close to my convenience and decided to give them a call. The owner was very helpful and friendly over phone, he agreed to take a look at my laptop to assess the issue. Once he open up the back cover of the laptop, he showed me how dusted my system was and how the fans were clogged up with layers of dust. Then he cleaned it up and went out of his way to re-apply thermal paste for a better cooling system. It was such an amazing result, my MacBook runs like new, much more efficiently and also resumed to its Smooth & Quiet state. I was pleased with the price as well, Thank you so much for the help. I greatly appreciate it!

    See all

These things are expensive, so I looked at repairing it versus replacing for a new iPad. While the Apple store will perform some work, they are closed during the pandemic, so I started Yelping alternatives. I contacted a phone service shop, and they explained the work required micro-soldering, which they don't do, but were nice enough to refer me to iTechCare. I contacted iTechCare and spoke with Xia. She is clearly very knowledgeable, and knew exactly what the work entailed. She made a recommendation on changing the battery since the case will be open, and the battery had a few years of charging cycles on it. I opted to just have the charging port replaced. I wanted to keep the time the iPad was away as short as possible, so I paid a deposit so the parts could be ordered. Then a couple of days later Xia notified me the parts were in, I dropped it off that evening, and she had it ready for pick up the next afternoon. Xia showed me photos of the old very-damaged charging port, which had several charging pins bent and some missing all together. It's been a couple of weeks now and the new charging port is still working flawlessly. Thank you!

Detailed diagnostics showed dust particles, spots, and scratches on the glass that Nice repaired. I'm gonna call my repair at NiceRepair a loss & walk away. Can't say the man was particularly nice nor was his repair good either. Brought in my iPhone 16 pro with a cracked camera lens for repair. TLDR: the quality of photos is awful & blurry after the repair, especially zoom. Quality of photos is terrible after the repair especially in night photos. You see the light streaks in the holiday lights. Then when recording video, as you zoom in, the picture goes totally out of focus in the mid distance then back into focus as you zoom in. Close-up macro photos are not crisp. The man wasn't the most friendly person but with the reviews here I thought that wasn't important and he'd get the job done well. He was on the phone when I walked in and after some back & forth he agreed to lower the price for a computer battery down to $240 but was not willing to negotiate at all with me for the camera lens. I relented since he had great reviews. He gave me a whole $5 discount on $80 if I paid in cash. Then tried to upsell me on screen protectors for front screen & cameras. Photos & video speaks for itself. I won't be back. I'm out $75 (plus whatever it will cost to get a decent lens in my phone. I have a long time left on my contract so no upgrades for me) and the quality of my photos is garbage. Take what you will from this review. I hope your experience is better.

    Alfonso is the real deal. I came to him with a solid state hard drive from a 2012 macbook air that…read morehad crashed. I had tried to recover the data off of it myself using a SD reader I purchased from amazon. When that failed, I paid another data recovery business in Irvine (this was not Alfonso or Cyber Electronics) about $500 for them to try recover it, and they took many many months to give me essentially 1% of what was on that drive, with many of those files being corrupt. They then told me that the drive was toast and that there was nothing more to be done and pretty much still made me pay because they supposedly put the work in already. They essentially told me my drive was useless now and could be trashed. I felt very suspicious about how this company handled my recovery, so as a hail mary I brought my same drive to Alfonso at Cyber Electronics Data Recovery. I explained to him my situation and that I wanted to see if in fact my drive was fully dead. Alfonso was very realistic, told me the probability of recovery given that solid state drives are harder to recover, and told me that he wouldn't bill me if he wasn't able to recover anything. However, given the condition of my drive, he essentially had to do all the work of a full recovery first, put in the hours without me having paid anything yet, to even see if anything could be salvaged. Over the next few days, he texted me every single day to give me an update as to what he had done, and what still needed to be done. He knew that the last data recovery company really screwed me, so he ensured that I would get a different experience. I'm happy to report that only a few days later, he called me with great news...he recovered my drive...the same drive that a yelp 5-star Irvine based data recovery company said was toast and recovered almost nothing off of. His price was the same as what I paid that other company Irvine company. After going through my recovered files, I can see that Alfonso recovered probably 95-98% of my drive...this is an amazing result for me and I am extremely pleased. Alfonso gets 5 stars in all regards. He's a genuine, kind individual and his customer service is top notch. He deserves all the praise he's gotten from all the amazing reviews you see about his business.

One week before xmas, I sat down to work and got a message and screen I'd never seen before - "no bootable devices found". I called my usual tech guys and they came over a few hours later but needed to take the drive to their shop. Of course, with the holidays, no one was working much and as much as I like my usual guys, I felt like I was getting the run-around and I wasn't getting any answers from them, they couldn't tell me what was wrong. I'm self-employed and do a ton of work over the holidays, so my anxiety and frustration increased hourly...I did get a new HD in the meantime, but I was very concerned about the data (and esp photos) on my failed HD. I found Five Star Data Recovery here on Yelp, I spoke to Elen and went to collect my failed HD from the other place and bring it to them. From the gate, I got updates every day or two and come to find out that it was the controller in my WD HD that had malfunctioned (Vahan is so wonderful in explaining the issues to a layperson!) and although there is a company that makes the little part to perform a "chip off" and therefore recover the data, there is not one yet for my make/model HD. However! As I still had my HD from previous to the one that failed, which had all of my pre-2020 photos on it (plus old docs, etc), Vahan was easily able to copy all of that over to a new external HD and I can't explain the relief and happiness that it brought me :-) I'm eager to come back when/if the little part for the chip off process becomes available for my failed HD, but in the meantime I'm just so happy to have my photos and eternally grateful to Vahan and team! Thank you all so much!!! :-) xoxo!

The damage I did to the drive required Five Star's clean-room service, and they quoted a flat rate to me in advance. The effort of recovering the data ended up being very challenging and took longer than any of us expected, but at the end Five Star was able to recover over 99% of the files--and I'm happy to say, the 1% of files were not important to me, so the 99% they recovered covered everything I needed. Despite that significant extra work, they invoiced me only for the original quoted amount. I'm happy with the results but also the professionalism. When I first reached out to Five Star, they got back to me at the start of the next business day and, after answering a few follow-up questions, I had a quote and scheduled to drop off my drive the same day. Vahan and Elen were particularly helpful and professional the entire way through. It was really a pleasure to work with them and I can't recommend Five Star enough!

    Choose these folks for your data recovery needs! I had two WD (called Western Digital when they…read moredrives were made) HDDs that I needed data from. I was unable to recover data from them in different ways. Disc one was an external drive that would not power on. I tried removing it from its external enclosure and powering it from another, more different enclosure to no avail. The system was indeed down. Disc two was an internal drive that used to be my C drive- my boot drive. I removed it from an old computer after it stopped booting and put it into an external enclosure. Several different computers (Mac & PC) would recognize it sporadically, though none could access the data on it- error codes always came up. Before I removed it, from the old computer, I tried booting from an optical disc and other assorted methods, many other assorted methods... I believe I was very thorough in my efforts. I sent both in and received near 100% recovery. They said it was 100% from one and 99.9% from the other but I am unable to find that .1%. I got all of this for just barely above the $300 price in their name (each, not total). So for about $600 total (including new discs on which my recovered data was transferred and return shipping) I got this incredible service. The total price I paid for both discs at 300DDR is less than I was quoted at several other places for one disc. At each step they were great communicators, from their receipt of the discs to my receipt of the recovered data. I hope I never need their services again but should, I wouldn't hesitate to use them again. I highly recommend them.
