Is your SSD not showing up, corrupted, or accidentally formatted? At Dr IT Services, we offer expert SSD data recovery in Birmingham, helping you recover lost documents, photos, and critical files from even the most stubborn solid-state drives.
We work with NVMe, M.2, SATA, and PCIe SSDs, using industry-grade software and forensic techniques — no outsourcing, no data lost in transit.
Why SSD Recovery Requires Special Expertise
SSDs handle data differently than traditional hard drives. They use:
- TRIM commands that wipe sectors immediately
- Complex firmware-level wear levelling
- Encrypted controllers (e.g., SandForce, Phison, SM2258)
- Flash chips that can degrade without warning
That’s why standard recovery tools don’t work — and why you need an expert.
