That's cheap if they recover the entire disc. I had an estimate on one that was by the mb. Turned out to be a couple grand if I.wanted.the whole disc. Needless to say, external backup daily is cheaper.

^^^^^^^
Four hundred bucks sounds cheap for professional recovery. Forensic recovery at least in the past used to be quoted in the thousands. |

For enterprise drives, last time I had to do so it cost $2000 per drive and there was no recovery guarantee. Count yourself lucky. Use backups, 2 is one, one is none.

Quoted: I have a 2TB Lacie hard drive that failed. Took it to a local "data recovery" business. They just sent an estimate of $434 WTF? HOLY HELL that is about $300 more than I thought it would be. Does that sound like a reasonable amount for the recovery of a hard drive? If they recover it and place on a new 2TB drive. that is relatively dirt cheap. |

Depending on how it failed, you can often replace the circuit board on the back of the drive with one of the exact model. So long as it isn't a mechanical failure, you have a chance of getting it working again. I have done that a couple times in the past.
And yes, that price is a good price. But keep in mind your not guaranteed to get everything back. |

before you do anything
take the drive out of the enclosure to see if the data is readable |

If the root problem is with the file system being corrupted or with the surface of the disk, Spinrite might be able to recover it and it is only $89.
I've used it once it was able to recover some, but not all files on a hard drive that had read issues after a power outage. The drive went from being completely unreadable to me being able to copy off about 90% of the data to a new drive. |
