How a Warranty Data Recovery Claim Works
Warranty replacement and data recovery are two different processes. A manufacturer warranty may cover replacement of eligible hardware, while data recovery focuses on retrieving files from the affected storage device. If the drive contains important data, confirm the required warranty approval process before authorising any procedure that may change the condition of the device.
Important
Warranty eligibility is decided by the respective manufacturer and is subject to that brand's current warranty terms. Raminfotech provides data recovery and support guidance; we do not control manufacturer warranty approval.

Before Submission
Information to Keep Ready
- Hard disk or storage-device brand and exact model number.
- Serial number and capacity of the device.
- Purchase or warranty details available from the manufacturer or seller.
- Your Raminfotech job number or service reference, if the device has already been submitted.
- A clear description of the problem: not detecting, clicking, very slow, bad sectors, firmware issue, accidental format or other failure.
- Details of the important folders/files that need to be recovered.

Protect Your Data
What to Do Before Warranty Replacement
Do Not Format or Initialise the Drive
If the system asks to format, initialise or repair the disk, avoid doing so when important data is still required.
Avoid Repeated Power-On Attempts
For drives making unusual clicking, beeping or spin-up/spin-down sounds, repeated testing can increase the risk of further media or head damage.
Check Approval Requirements First
If the manufacturer requires a specific approval letter, case number or authorised process before data recovery, complete that step before proceeding.
Keep Original Labels Intact
Do not remove or alter serial-number, model, warranty or identification labels on the storage device.
