Q. I have a laptop hard drive that is too dead for me to boot up in my Gateway laptop, but is just alive enough that a hard drive recovery company could get the data off of it.
A. Depends on the problem. If it's logical (virus,corruption,partition) you can buy some software and recover it yourself. If it's hardware (clicking noises, no spin) you're going to have to spend $1000+ for a pro to recover your data. Take it to these guys, they do a free evaluation and quote.

How can get files from a dead laptop?
Q. my toshiba laptop is not working any more. and i didn't backup the files on time, i only have some files saved.
so is there anyone to take out the hard drive and do something about? i can think of a few options.
1. send it to those data recovery service places, but it might cost a lot, and i don't feel comfortable letting them checking out my personal files.
2. put the hard drive in an external hard drive, but toshiba people told me that it is not possible for this particlar hard drive, i am not sure.
3. buy a used toshiba laptop, and just take out that hard drive, and use this old hard drive instead.
so can someone give me an idea as how I can do this? thanks.

A. If the Mother board is dead, pull the hard drive, you can purchase a USB to IDE controller, mount the drive via USB.

What place can recover hard drive data from a dead iPhone 4?
Q. My phones battery circuitry short circuited from water damage. So my iPhone cannot charge and is completely out of battery. Is there any place that can take out the hard drive and recover the data (music, contacts, pictures) and put it on my current phone?
A. Your iPhone doesn't have a "hard drive" that can be removed from it. It has NAND flash memory that is attached directly to the mainboard PCB for storage. Your only real option is likely a data recovery service. I would recommend this one. I've never used them for a phone, but they are great for external hard drives and flash memory in general.
