How we fix your Sony VAIO VGC LT Series
We test the drive's health first. If it's failing, we copy your files off before it gets any worse, then fit the new drive.
Most customers choose an SSD. It makes an older Sony VAIO VGC LT Series start and run noticeably faster, uses less power and has no moving parts to fail. We install your operating system and copy your files back.
How long it takes
Drive replacements are usually finished the same day or the next day. Recovering files from a badly failing drive can take longer.
Good to know: If your drive is clicking, switch the laptop off. Every restart can make recovering your files harder.
Sony's 22-inch all-in-one VAIO desktop launched in autumn 2007, a combined PC and television with Blu-ray on upper versions; not a notebook. More about the Sony VAIO VGC LT Series
Common questions
Will I lose my files?
Not if the old drive can still be read. We copy your files to the new drive. If the drive is badly damaged, our data recovery service can help.
Should I upgrade my Sony VAIO VGC LT Series to an SSD?
