    Our Technology

    Professional USB Drive Recovery.

    USB flash drives use NAND flash memory with a limited number of write cycles. Drives from the early 2000s are well past their rated endurance — but that doesn't mean the data is gone. It often means the controller chip has failed while the underlying flash cells still hold your files.

    Our professional recovery tools can bypass the failed controller and read the NAND flash directly, extracting your files even when the drive is completely unrecognized by standard computers. We support FAT, exFAT, NTFS, HFS+, and Linux filesystems.

    A USB drive from 2009 with all our honeymoon photos — it hadn't worked in years. Capture got everything off it. Couldn't believe it, thought they were gone forever.

    Sent in a box of about 15 old flash drives from the 2000s and 2010s. Got back thousands of files across all of them. The turnaround was fast too.

    One of my drives had corrupted files but they recovered the vast majority. The files came back organized just like I had them originally. Very professional.

    My daughter's first steps were on a USB drive that stopped working. Capture got the video back. I can't put a price on that. Amazing company.
