Regardless of the brand or age, our CD recovery service is equipped to work with any optical media type, including rare or discontinued models.
Different manufacturers use different dye layers and reflective coatings, which affect how a disc degrades over time and how it responds to laser recovery techniques. Our engineers are familiar with the construction of each major brand, from budget blank media to archival-grade discs, and adjust our imaging approach accordingly to get the best possible read rate.
We also regularly recover data from own-brand and unbranded discs, private-label media used by photo kiosks and printing services, and OEM software or installation discs bundled with hardware. If you're unsure who manufactured your disc, our free evaluation will identify it and confirm whether recovery is possible before any work begins.
Our Data Recovery Process
Our data recovery process is secure, transparent, and designed to minimise downtime. Here's how it works:
Send us your device using the free postage label and our engineers will assess it for free. We'll let you know exactly what's recoverable before you commit.
We create a full, bit-by-bit clone of your storage media to preserve the original. Your data remains untouched while we work on the image copy.
Depending on the fault, we use cleanroom hardware repairs or forensic software tools to extract your data, even from damaged or encrypted media.
You'll receive a file list of everything we can recover. Once approved, we'll return your data on a secure USB drive or via encrypted cloud transfer.
