start with what tool?

[elanibal]

I have a couple of years working in data recovery, all I have done manually using r-studio only on the logical problems and changing the pcb in electronic problems.

I want to initiate me more professionally and want to invest in a machine to retrieve data that is why I want to know which machine is best for introducing me professionally.

What Manufacturer and machines that you recommend for me started professionally in data recovery?

ace lab
PC3000

SalvationDATA
compass data and hddoctor

Atola
Atola insight

dolphin data labs
DFL and DFL-DE-FRP

What do you recommend me?

Hi elanibal

You could add Deepspar Disk Imager (DDI) to your list.
Not as extensive or expensive as the gear you mention but a great step up from software based recovery and offers a good return on investment. It is worth adding the current monitor and network addon at this stage too.

The DDI USB addon is quite expensive by comparison and may not give you much return being quite specialised in its application. Your mileage may vary as obviously the more trade you have, the more likely you are to use it.

Also check Atola Imager in the same sort of price bracket.

Salvation Data gear is cheaper but not well regarded here and has seen a lot of complaints regarding fitness for purose and general level of support and updates.

It is also worth checking the price of yearly updates, support, and if you are allowed to sell the gear if you decide to leave data recovery.

good luck

of if you decide to leave Data Recovery and want to sell your gear on.
