Adroit Data Recovery Centre (Also known as “ADRC”), together MC2 bring you the first and only “Data Recovery Clinics” in the city. Called Adroit Data Recovery Clinics @ MC2, they are designed to educate the public on data recovery and also help clients recover the most precious asset of our times – digital data.
With the launch of new Windows Vista, digital data will be more easily transferred between different media, thus there will be higher risk of digital data loss, be it on your laptop, your MP3, your camera, etc. But many Singaporeans are unaware that digital data of all forms (data on your laptops, PCs, mobile phones, cameras, camcorders, CDs, VCDs, DVDs and even MP3s) can be recovered when lost. ADRC aims to make these data recovery clinics a place where visitors can seek FREE advice and evaluation, when they get into "digital accidents" resulting in a data loss situation. Customers with any form of lost digital data can bring their damaged data to the clinic and request for a free evaluation on whether the data is recoverable.
One of the key partners for this clinic is MC2, a notebook retail chain with retail footprint in major shopping malls, such as Suntec City, Funan Centre and Sim Lim Square. The company has recently won the ‘Singapore SME 500 - Promising SME Awards’ a few weeks ago, when its revenues grew from $3m to over $20m within a year. “As MC2 grows rapidly, we realize that customers have high expectations of not just our “hardware” (such as product range, pricing, etc.), they also want more “software” (quality service, product knowledge, etc.) and data recovery is one of the biggest queries that have been often brought up. We are delighted to officially bring such a renowned data recovery service into our offering and we believe that our customers will definitely benefit from it. Also with the newly launched Windows Vista operating system, which promises convergence of digital data such as photos, music and video, end- users’ data has became increasingly important.” Leslie Lim, Director, MC2 Pte Ltd

”This initiative seeks to inculcate media literacy skills in Singaporeans. As Singapore moves towards the digital age, there will be higher risk of digital data loss, be it on your laptop, your MP3, your camera, etc. The experience of losing data, be it business or personal, could be extremely traumatic. Frequently, lost data could be prevented, minimized or even recovered completely in the worst case situation for discerning users. Adroit Data Recovery Centre (ADRC) aims to help people retrieve their precious lost data fully at the lowest price within the shortest time." Felix Chang, Managing Director, Adroit Data Recovery Centre Pte Ltd
