PC-3000: Our Core Recovery Platform
PC-3000 is the industry-standard hardware and software toolchain our engineers rely on for sector-level imaging, firmware repair, and controller-level SSD/flash recovery.
Industry-Leading Hardware & Software Recovery Systems
Our PC-3000 tool suite—developed by ACE Lab in the Czech Republic—provides sector-level access to failed drives, degraded controllers, and corrupted firmware that standard tools cannot reach.
PC-3000 Portable PRO ⭐
Complete portable recovery system in one device. Enterprise-grade HDD, SSD, RAID, and flash recovery in a compact form. Integrated touchscreen interface, 6-port connectivity, forensic-grade imaging. Perfect for field operations, forensic labs, and on-site recovery. No PC or external equipment needed.
PC-3000 Express
6-port SATA/PATA tester for HDD diagnosis & recovery. Four SATA ports (up to 133 MB/s) and two PATA ports with switchable configuration. Intelligent power supply with overvoltage/overcurrent protection. Supports 3.5", 2.5", 1.8" drives. Windows 7/8.1/10/11.
PC-3000 UDMA
3-port tester for SATA & ATA drives. Two SATA ports (133 MB/s) and one PATA port (100 MB/s). Optimized for smaller labs and smaller case volumes. Slight performance reduction when both channels are under load. Cost-effective alternative to Express.
PC-3000 Flash
NAND memory chip extraction & recovery. Direct access to flash memory when controllers fail. Supports USB flash drives, SD cards, MicroSD, CompactFlash, iPhones 2G-3GS. Spider Board Adapter for safe monolith recovery without soldering.
PC-3000 SSD
Controller-level & NAND-level SSD recovery. Firmware repair, service area reconstruction, translation system rebuilding. Supports all major SSD controller families. Works alongside PC-3000 Flash for comprehensive NVMe and solid-state recovery.
Multi-Drive Array Reconstruction
Paired with PC-3000 systems for advanced RAID recovery: RAID 0/1/5/6/10, NAS arrays (Synology, QNAP, Drobo), and proprietary configurations.
Data Extractor Express RAID
Multi-disk RAID reconstruction for 4x SATA or mixed SATA/PATA arrays. Virtually rebuilds array parity and stripe order in software before file extraction.
Data Extractor UDMA RAID
RAID recovery for 2-disk configurations. Supports degraded arrays, failed rebuilds, and firmware configuration corruption.
SAS/SCSI 6 RAID
Enterprise-grade recovery for SAS and SCSI disk arrays. Sector-level imaging of high-capacity enterprise drives (up to 8 TB+).
What PC-3000 Can Do That Consumer Tools Cannot
MR-Head Shift Technology
If one read/write head fails, we substitute it with an adjacent good head—keeping data integrity intact and reading large volumes without head-stack replacement.
Service Area Reconstruction
Recover or rebuild a drive's hidden service area and translator modules. Switch between service area copies to correct HDD initialization. Reload program modules into RAM.
Technological Mode Access
Read data using physical parameters (PZCHS or ABA). Often the only way to recover data from significantly damaged surfaces.
Defect Hiding & Exclusion
Detect bad sectors and tracks, then hide them from the HDD working area. In minor cases, use backup zone. Capacity remains unchanged.
Firmware Database & Updates
Massive FireBird SQL database of HDD firmware resources. Auto-download latest libraries: ROM chips, service modules, ECC algorithms, XOR tables, and chip libraries.
Vendor-Specific Utilities
16+ specialized utilities for different vendors (Seagate, WD, Samsung, Fujitsu, Maxtor, Quantum, IBM/HGST, Hitachi, Toshiba). Each targets specific architectures and HDD families.
How We Use PC-3000 In Recovery
PC-3000 is one stage of our broader recovery workflow — always paired with careful diagnosis and a cleanroom environment for physical work.
Diagnosis
We inspect the device, identify the failure type (mechanical, logical, firmware, or physical) and give you a transparent quote before any work begins.
Evaluation
Our engineers run a deeper imaging and diagnostic pass in a controlled environment to map exactly what is recoverable and what approach is safest.
Recovery
Using cleanroom hardware, donor parts, and tools like PC-3000, we image the media sector-by-sector and reconstruct your file system and files.
Return
Recovered data is verified, indexed, and delivered on encrypted media or secure transfer — with your original device returned or securely disposed of.
Have a drive that other tools couldn't fix?
If a previous recovery attempt failed, our PC-3000-equipped lab may still be able to help. Send us the details for a free second opinion.
