Marlow data recovery. Surface water found Fieldhouse Lane. It found the servers too.

Marlow is a small Thames town with a suspension bridge at one end and a business park at the other, and the council's report on the winter of 2014 names both: St Peter Street, Mill Road and Lock Road under river water, Dedmere Road, Fieldhouse Lane and The Acre under surface water. Storage survives neither. Switch the device off, pack it rigid, post it tracked, and pay nothing for the diagnosis.

If you post it in: post it to our intake lab tracked and fully insured, and slip the shipping form in beside the drive; we pay the return leg. How to pack it is covered in detail on the postage page.

Marlow, step by step.

The courier covers the milesAn SL7 counter can start the job: tracked post, a scan logged at each leg of the route, and the drive usually in front of an engineer the following morning.
Packing does the workMost damage done after a failure happens in transit, not on the bench. Give the drive a rigid box, padding against every face and no room to travel inside; the contact page holds the method and the form.
Flooded rooms, wet boxesA drive that has been under water should not be dried, opened or switched on: what the water leaves behind as it dries is what finishes the platters. Seal it, say what it stood in, and let the bench clean it.
Marlow pays what everyone paysThe diagnosis is free, the quoted figure is written down and stays there, most work runs on no recovery no fee, and postage back is included. Where you live has never altered a quote.

The questions Marlow asks.

Maidenhead-based — does that suit Marlow?

It works because none of it depends on driving. Marlow sits on the same courier network as everywhere else: a tracked parcel handed over in SL7 on a weekday generally reaches a bench the next morning, and the return journey is at our expense.

Is posting a fragile drive a risk worth taking?

Less of one than carrying it around in a footwell. What protects a drive is packing rather than mileage: a rigid box, padding against every face, nothing loose inside. Couriers move far more delicate things than a hard disk every working day.

Our Marlow office has stopped working. Does that move us up?

Yes, though not because of the postcode — what moves a job up the list is a company that has stopped. Say so on the first call, send it next-day tracked, and it is opened the morning it lands.

Anything Marlow should know?

Two habits worth breaking. Mention water, damp or dust when you book rather than afterwards, and resist giving a failing drive one last attempt before it is packed. Another power-up rarely improves matters.
