Data Recovery People began its operations in 1989 as the Crash Data Recovery Division of the Adaptive Research and Design Company, now headquartered in Miami, Florida. We began by fixing spreadsheet files and rebuilding file allocation tables. Today, with over 15 years of successful data recovery experience, we maintain our own U.S. based cleanroom operations, complete with all the computer hardware, software and other technology resources needed to replicate most computing environments and operating systems platforms. This gives us the ability to extract and salvage data from almost any computer server, workstation, desktop, laptop or notebook fixed or removable media--including RAID arrays, hard disks, disc drives, tapes and cartidges--in almost any OS, local area network, software application, database or digital archive format. Call Data Recovery People at 1-888-596-3282 or 305-899-0070

editor's note:- this company has indeed been in the data recovery business for a long time as you can see by looking at the 1998 archived version of its website.
