WHAT WE CAN AND CANNOT RECOVER FROM
Can You Retrieve Overwritten CCTV Footage?
Yes, it’s possible to recover overwritten CCTV footage footage, yet it's imperative to move swiftly to enhance the likelihood of a successful recovery. Utilizing a reliable data recovery service such as WILDFIRE DATA RECOVERY to perform a scan on the storage device that previously housed your surveillance recordings is the most effective approach to recovering such footage.
What are the 2 major data recovery categories:
1. 🔨 Physical Data Loss: At Wildfire Data Recovery Brisbane, we define physical data loss, as something that occurs when there is a mechanical breakdown within the hard drive of your laptop. This susceptibility primarily affects mechanical hard drives due to their multitude of moving components, each with minimal tolerance for physical mishaps. Various factors can contribute to mechanical hard drive failures, such as water damage, electrical impairment, or the impact of physical shock, such as accidentally dropping your laptop.
​
​
2. 💿 Logical Data Loss: In straightforward terms, logical data loss arises when your storage device remains physically intact and functions properly, yet you encounter difficulties accessing certain files. Logical data loss stems from a multitude of factors, with several prevailing causes being distinct from one another. Among the most frequently encountered triggers are compromised file systems, unexpected power surges or outages, and human errors like unintentional data deletion or formatting.
​
Data loss can stem from a multitude of reasons, including logical corruption of the drive, failure of the storage device, malware attacks, and unintended deletions. The majority of CCTV camera setups rely on a Digital Video Recorder (DVR) to capture and store footage from the cameras. These DVR systems are designed to automatically purge older videos after a specific period (based on the system's settings) to optimize storage capacity efficiently. Given the operational characteristics of DVRs, the likelihood of successful data recovery hinges on the promptness with which the recovery effort is initiated. Furthermore, it is advisable to consistently archive older videos to an alternate storage medium or cloud service, facilitating smoother retrieval when needed.
Why have I lost the data from my CCTV device in the first place?Â
What filesystems are used for CCTV/DVR data storage?
CCTV/DVR systems use specific file systems optimized for the continuous writing and overwriting of video data. These file systems are designed to handle large volumes of data efficiently, reduce fragmentation, and ensure data integrity even in the event of power loss or system failure. Here are some of the common file systems used in CCTV/DVR systems:

THE WILDFIRE CCTV/DVR DATA RECOVERY PROCESS
"It is as easy as 1, 2, 3. Our hard drive data recovery process is customised for every client."
1.
COMPREHENSIVE RECOVERY REPORT
Once we process and diagnose our client's device(s) we complete a comprehensive diagnostic report. It marks on the total costs (inc. projected costs) of the recovery, the chance of success, the issue with the hard drive and why it requires data recovery services and finally the expected date of completion. We offer our customers a comprehensive diagnostic report free of charge with our standard service, to find the root of the failure and allow our engineers to find the right path to recovery.
2.
ONCE DIAGNOSIS IS OVER...
Following the completion of our comprehensive recovery report, we complete our diagnostic and consultation services with our clients and provide a projected success rate for their particular device and failure (these success rates are based on thousands of recoveries). Once the diagnostics are completed buy our experienced data recovery engineers, and the data recovery options are clear, we provide a firm no-obligation price quote. This quote can always be rejected by our clients and they can take their device and shop around.
3.
ONCE THE JOB IS APPROVED...
Once our clients provide us with the green light and approve the quote and the comprehensive report, our engineers conduct the invasive hard drive repairs and if necessary, use custom-designed, in-house, tools to recreate file systems and partition table information our clients need to progress to the next level of hard drive data recovery. This step can take a number of days, to a number of weeks depending on the complexiety of the hard drive failure. For example, a LEVEL 1 Logic Hard Drive Data Recovery may take 2-5 days, while a LEVEL 4 Complex Mechanical Hard Drive Failure can take up to 4 weeks or longer.
