As a massive public electric utility, Seattle City Light (SCL) manages power generation, grid maintenance, and massive customer service databases. The daily administration of this energy grid is tied directly to the Microsoft enterprise agreements and Windows-based standard computers supplied by Seattle IT.

Utility data is notoriously sensitive and complex. A localized hardware failure on a grid management workstation or an administrative server crash could interrupt vital services for residents and businesses.

Seattle Data Recovery is uniquely positioned to handle these catastrophic failures. Our entire operation now runs from a dedicated lab inside the UW Medicine Building in Ballard. Because professional data recovery requires professional spacing, we operate strictly at the postgraduate level. When SCL faces a severe digital roadblock, our advanced environmental controls and technical expertise ensure Seattle's power management data is never permanently lost.

Critical Notice: Physical Damage & Hardware Policy

Please be advised that ANY damage that is physical or mechanical in nature requires additional parts and labor.
The baseline mechanical recovery rate covers our cleanroom environment entry, laboratory equipment allocation, and initial micro-engineering setup. Because physical failures require sourcing exact matching donor drives from our global component pipeline to swap out broken read/write head assemblies, seized spindles, or damaged electronics, all components, replacement donor hardware, and extended mechanical bench labor will be billed as additional standalone costs following your diagnosis.
