Data Conversion, Extraction, Migration, Duplication & Tape eDiscovery Services

Old legacy data is often held on media that is no longer used and in formats that have long since become redundant. Modern applications often lack the backwards compatibility to correctly interpret old data formats and the hardware that once wrote and read this data has fallen into disrepair or is no longer available.

Sometimes an eDiscovery service is required to extract archived data from tapes / floppy disks etc for the purposes of auditing or digital forensic investigation (for more information please refer to our main eDiscovery & forensic data recovery page.)

Data Clinic can successfully transfer data from outdated applications and redundant formats onto newer, more efficient platforms –
