A failed drive in Coleraine doesn't mean a trip across the water or a faceless national lab. We're Belfast Data Recovery — down the M2 and A26 and A26 — recovering hard drives, SSDs, camera cards, NAS units and servers in-house for over 25 years. Post it in fully insured, or drop it off in Belfast. Free diagnostic, no fix no fee on most jobs.
The university town on the River Bann, gateway to the Causeway Coast, is about 55 miles from our Belfast lab — post it in fully insured and there's no drive, or bring it down if you're heading to the city. Nothing is worked on until you approve a fixed quote.
From the town centre out to Portstewart, Portstewart, Portstewart and Portstewart, the service is the same: post it to us fully insured, or drop it off in Belfast.
Coleraine — the university town on the lower River Bann and gateway to the Causeway Coast — is home to around 24,000 people in Co Londonderry. A commercial hub for the north coast with an Ulster University campus, a busy retail centre and employers across education, food processing, retail and tourism.
That makes for a lot of irreplaceable data: the university and its students, food processors and manufacturers running servers and NAS boxes, north-coast tourism operators, retailers, and households with years of photos on a single external drive. When that storage fails, it can feel like a catastrophe.
Usually not. Most drives that look dead still hold every byte — what has failed is the electronics, the heads or the file system, not the data itself. It just needs reading off cleanly on the first attempt, by people who do exactly this every day.
We're Belfast-based, about 55 miles along the M2 and A26, and we've recovered exactly this kind of data for Coleraine customers for over 25 years. You have options: post your device to us fully insured and tracked, or drop it off at our Belfast office in person if you're heading down. Every job starts with a free diagnostic and a fixed written quote, and on most jobs it's no fix, no fee.
Four of the recoveries that come in most often from Coleraine and nearby.
Coleraine is a straight run down the M2 and A26, so you can drop the drive in — but the post is just as easy if you'd rather not travel.

Bring your device — or just the drive for laptops, NAS and servers — to our Belfast office Mon–Fri 9am–5:30pm, or post it fully insured.
We diagnose it, normally inside 48 hours, and send a fixed written quote before anything starts.
We recover your data, check it against a file listing, and you either collect it or we post it back on fresh media.
Dropping in skips the postage step altogether, and urgent jobs can usually be fast-tracked — just say so when you call.
