As we are the manufacturer of the device as well as provide award-winning support, your data is in good hands.
While there are many options for you to recover your data (software, local service providers, etc.) there are only a few options that come from an award-winning service. Did you know that if a company attempts to recover data but is unable, this lowers the likelihood of data recovery from the next attempt? It is important to get it right the first time.
No data recovered, No Charge. No shipping fee (Buffalo will provide the shipping label).
Once your data is recovered, did you know that you can save hassle & money by choosing to receive your data on a TeraStation Network Attached Storage (NAS) device?
Save Hassle – You will not need to copy your data back to your device as it will be already uploaded to your new NAS device.
Save Money – Rather than spending money on a hard drive for a single use, you will have a new NAS device to access your data and continue to store new data on.
Being built from high quality parts, with many physical & digital security features and shipped with data redundancy mode (RAID) already configured, you can rest assured your data is stored on the market’s most reliable and secure storage device. Learn more here.
For registered devices, we offer free data recovery services for qualifying TeraStations that experienced simple logical data issues.
With completed product registration, the following product families will receive free data recovery services within original warranty terms.
To qualify for the free data recovery service, you must have your device pre-registered before it experiences errors.
Please register your product here.
If you registered your device already, you will be automatically qualified.
Please contact us if you do not remember whether you had registered your device in the past.

Once your data is recovered, you can choose to receive it on a USB HDD or on the market’s most reliable & secure Network Storage (NAS).
When my home NAS drive fed me a steady stream of data errors and then one day appeared as unformatted, I was faced with the loss of nearly 20 years of personal records, including irreplaceable photos and videos. It felt as if parts of my life had been erased and it was a very trying time. Buffalo Data Recovery Services recovered all of my data and the team was professional and supportive throughout the process. The process was rather expensive due to the amount of data corruption on the main drives and the backup drives, but in the end I was very pleased with the result and extremely grateful that they were able to recover my data.

This customer opted to have their recovered data integrated onto a TeraStation NAS:
It was very simple, I just plugged it in and it was ready to go. The only place I had any difficulty was the fact the shares were stored in a recovered data folder and it made it more difficult for my employees to map to the share folder. Once I have the data backed up, I will fix this by removing the shares from the recovered data folder. Considering everything, overall it was a good experience and very easy.
