Where we work · Totton
Totton data recovery. A town on the A326, and the drives that come off it.
Totton was made a town in 1974. At the 2021 census it had 28,094 residents. There are two main routes for leaving Totton: Commercial Road and the A35 causeway, as well as the route that leads away from the M27 via the A326 to Marchwood. What we receive from Totton is mainly household and sole trader type of work (which may arrive by parcel or be brought to our Guildford intake laboratory). The Guildford laboratory is open Monday to Friday 9am to 5:30pm and does not require an appointment.

What Totton sends by post.
Not listed? Try the fault finder →| The complaint | Why it happens here | First step |
|---|---|---|
| A commuter's laptop that stopped waking up | Machines that ride the South West Main Line five mornings a week. | Usually the drive, rarely the laptop |
| A sole trader's external drive with the whole business on it | Quotes, invoices and photographs of completed jobs, held only once | Let us know what is on it and when you need it |
| A home NAS box showing error messages for crashed volumes | Two disks in a cupboard, and no second copy available anywhere | Shut power to it and mark which bay each drive came from |
| Memory sticks found at the back of drawers | Years of school photographs on a memory stick that no longer mounts. | Straight onto the flash bench |
| Desktops that will not spin up after an outage. | Platters are rarely harmed by power failures. The electronic components take all the punishment. | Quote first, then send the drive, not the machine |

Which addresses around Totton do you take work from?
All of them (SO40) and both sides of the A326. The link to the bench is via the post and therefore not based upon a travel distance. So a drive from Eling starts just as close to the bench as one from Commercial Road.
Can I drop a drive off in Totton?
The answer to this question is "no", and it would provide no benefit, since tracked post performs the same task in the same amount of time. An item posted during working hours will typically be delivered to the bench the day after. The free diagnosis can begin when the item arrives at the bench. Get a quote first, by phone or with the form, before sending an item. Additionally, if it is convenient, you may also bring your item into the Guildford intake laboratory, Monday to Friday, 9am to 5:30pm, no appointment needed.
A NAS box here says the volume has crashed. What now?
Leave the repair option alone and switch the power off. That one message can cover at least three different fault types that need opposite treatments. Imaging all disks before starting eliminates none of these options.
A small Totton business has stopped. Can it move up?
Yes. When you call us for assistance, let us know that trading has stopped, and the case goes first into our imaging queue; we work on it right through Monday to Friday, 9am to 5:30pm. A dated estimate will be given once there is sufficient information from the diagnostic process to provide such an estimate.
