We are digital librarians. Among us are represented the various reasons to keep data -- legal requirements, competitive requirements, uncertainty of permanence of cloud services, distaste for transmitting your data externally (e.g. government or corporate espionage), cultural and familial archivists, internet collapse preppers, and people who do it themselves so they're sure it's done right. Everyone has their reasons for curating the data they have decided to keep (either forever or For A Damn Long Time (tm) ). Along the way we have sought out like-minded individuals to exchange strategies, war stories, and cautionary tales of failures.

Hi, I have a old issue that hopefully I can find resolution too, an old hard drive enclosure and hard drive fell a distance from a table to the ground, The hard drive instantly lost connection started grinding and wouldn't connect nor would I risk it.

Want to know what my options for Hard drive repair, or Data recovery are the issue happened over a year ago but some stuff happened recently and more than anything I want to get some or all of them pictures back. Ideally through a reputable service while we have curry's not sure if there are any other better companies based in the UK to go to.

Thanks.
