Areas we cover · Battle, TN33
Data recovery in Battle. A large parish, two big schools, a High Street of small firms.
Battle is a small town within a larger parish (31.8 square kilometres) with a population density of around 213 individuals per km², and its 2021 census population was approximately 6,800. The railway station serving the area lies along the Hastings line, and the main westbound route from the town leads inland to Hailsham. Its computing comes from heritage, two substantial schools, farms and a High Street with several small professional practices. Each of these drives leaves Battle in the same manner (usually a parcel sent by tracked delivery), at the same price as every case from Brighton, and is assessed at no charge upon receipt.

How a Battle job runs.
Asked in Battle, answered here.
Battle is not on the East Coastway. Does that matter?
Only to trains. This station sits on the Hastings line between Crowhurst and Robertsbridge. By train the way westbound goes through Hastings then Bexhill then Eastbourne then Polegate and finally Lewes. All of those are skipped when a parcel is sent tracked and it arrives with us the following working morning.
Can you read a memory card the camera calls corrupt?
Generally. The card's index will be rewritten in a format and the pictures will remain where they were, and "corrupt" generally refers to some sort of file structure problem sitting on top of perfectly good images. One thing determines it: that nothing new has been written to that card since the fault occurred.
Our school needs a quote the finance office can process. How does that work?
We offer a no-cost diagnostic. We then provide a single firm written quote before doing anything else. The quote includes a simple explanation of what we find and what returns to you. A purchase order can be created from this information alone and we do not add any charges after creating the PO.
Do you come out to Battle for a server?
Nobody travels out to you, and there is no van. Obtain a quote first, either over the phone or using our form: a server or a RAID set then arrives at our location stripped down to bare disks, each disk having a bay label, and a NAS the same way if you are able to remove the disks from it; otherwise the entire unit will arrive in its own case. If your equipment is difficult to pack we recommend contacting us first so we can agree upon the best method to package the item(s).
