The least expensive problems are logical.
Logical problems are mainly software and user related issues.

Typical symptoms of logical problems can be as simple as not being able to open a file, files that have been deleted, formatting your hard drive, and the infamous "Blue Screen of Death."

If you are experiencing a logical problem, data recovery solutions range from low cost do-it-yourself software to online recovery services and in-lab, non-cleanroom data recovery options. Prices for recovering your data from logical problems is as follows:

DIY software solutions: $79 to 1500
Online data recovery options: $199 to 1500
Non-cleanroom, in-lab data recovery: $299 to 1800

Physical problems cost more.
Physical problems are usually the easiest to detect & diagnose; like clicking or grinding noises.

Recovering your data from a physical or mechanical hard drive failure usually involves opening your hard drive in a cleanroom environment.

These types of problems are more expensive to recover data from because of the the cost of parts, skills and equipment required to recover your data.

Cleanroom data recovery procedures include replacing heads, re-writing firmware and swapping platters from one drive to a new one. Prices will fall into the following ranges for non-server and non-RAID systems:

Small owner operator data recovery companies: $499 to 1000
Mid-size data recovery companies average capabilities: $800 to 1500
Large data recovery companies highest success rates: $1200 to 3000

RAID Configurations and servers.
Recovering data from servers and RAID configurations is the most expensive because the complexity of rebuilding failed RAID arrays and damaged databases requires extensive training, knowledge and the capability of reading low-level hex on hard drives in order to rebuild your data.

Servers and RAID systems can have both logical problems and physical problems. These problems can range from lost or damaged RAID configuration to RAID controller or multiple hard drive failure.

Prices for recovering servers and RAID systems vary depending on the type of failure, capacity of your array and the amount of data you need to recover but can be generalized as follows:

Logical RAID and server recovery prices:

DIY software solutions: $279 to 2000
Online data recovery options: $3000 and up
Non-cleanroom, in-lab data recovery: $2000 and up

Physical RAID and server recovery prices:

Small owner operator data recovery companies: $2000 to 5000
Mid-size data recovery companies - medium success rates: $4000 plus
Large data recovery companies - highest success rates: $8000 plus
