Protect Files You Can't Afford to Lose

Momo Technology Solutions sets up secure backups and recovers lost data for homeowners in Rochester.

When your hard drive fails without warning or you accidentally delete a folder containing years of family photos, the sinking realization that those files may be gone forever hits hard. If you live in Rochester and your computer crashes, or your phone is lost or damaged, the data stored only on that device disappears unless you've been backing it up regularly. Most people know they should protect their files but never get around to setting up a system that works automatically and consistently.

Momo Technology Solutions helps recover lost or deleted files when possible and sets up secure backup systems that protect your photos, documents, and important files going forward. The service supports both cloud-based solutions and external hard drives, depending on your preference and how much data you need to store. Each setup is explained in simple terms so you understand where your files are stored, how often backups occur, and what happens if you need to restore something later.

If you've lost important files in Rochester or want to prevent that from happening, get in touch to discuss recovery options and backup solutions.

Data recovery in Rochester begins with a diagnostic to determine whether lost files are still present on your device or if they've been overwritten by new data. Specialized software scans your drive for recoverable files, and anything that can be retrieved is copied to a safe location. If your drive has physically failed, recovery becomes more difficult, but many files can still be accessed if the damage isn't severe. For backup setup, your files are organized, and a system is configured to copy them automatically to a cloud service or external drive on a schedule you choose.

Once a backup system is in place, your files are copied regularly without you needing to remember to do it manually. If your computer crashes or a file is accidentally deleted, you can restore it from the backup without losing weeks or months of work. You no longer worry about hardware failure or accidental deletions because your data exists in more than one place.

This service does not recover data from devices that have been physically destroyed or exposed to water unless specialized forensic recovery is used, which may require sending the device to a lab. Simple accidental deletions and drive malfunctions are handled directly. You'll be informed up front if recovery is unlikely or if additional steps are needed beyond what's offered here.

Recovery and Backup Setup Explained

People dealing with data loss or considering backup options often have questions about what can be recovered, how backups work, and what happens if something goes wrong.

What You Should Know Before Requesting Help

What are the chances of recovering my lost files?
If the files were recently deleted and your computer hasn't been used heavily since, recovery is often successful. If the drive has failed completely or been formatted, success depends on the severity of the damage and how much data has been overwritten.
How does automatic backup work?
Once configured, backup software copies your selected files to a cloud service or external drive on a set schedule, such as daily or weekly. You don't need to start the process manually, and you'll receive alerts if a backup fails or your storage is running low.
What is the difference between cloud and external drive backups?
Cloud backups store your files on remote servers you can access from any device with internet, while external drives keep a physical copy you control. Cloud services typically charge monthly fees, while external drives are a one-time purchase but can be lost or damaged.
Will backing up slow down my computer?
Most backup software runs in the background and uses minimal resources, so you won't notice any performance impact during regular use. Backups can be scheduled to run overnight or during times when you're not actively working.
How much storage do I need for backups?
Storage needs in Rochester depend on how many photos, videos, and documents you have. Most homeowners need between 500 GB and 2 TB, but you'll receive a recommendation based on your current file sizes and how much new data you generate regularly.
