Data needed:

Are we talking PC laptop? Mac? Do you want someone in the CBD or farther afield?

PC laptop. Within 15km of the CBD.

Cyberlounge, at 1/203 West Coast Highway, Scarborough. The guy there is great - he got all the data off my PC laptop hard drive just last week, when I was convinced it was a goner. He did it on the spot. Cost me $80.

For a PC laptop, I can only speak to having used a single repair company around here, but I've used them a few time with great results (not specifically for failed hard drives, though) and they have been quite professional and polite. They're Enable Technology, and they've got a spot in the middle of the CBD on Hay Street, about 50 metres from one of the CAT stops.
