recovery specialist, today announces the appointment of leading IT distributor

Powermatic Distribution Pte Ltd as a business partner.

Under the agreement, Powermatic Distribution will serve as a collection centre for

data recovery requests while micronDR will provide the data recovery services.

This partnership will significantly reduce the cost of data recovery to customers of the

Prestigio line of portable storage devices distributed by Powermatic Distribution.

“Customers who purchase portable storage devices typically use them for migration of

their database or as a backup. To further protect them from any unforeseen problem

arising during the migration or backup process, we are offering them a free threemonth

data recovery service for all Prestigio portable storage sold,” said Derric Lim,

Director of Operations of Powermatic Distribution. “They can enjoy extra protection

by opting for a heavily discounted one to three-year extended protection plan.”

This relationship allows Powermatic to extend data recovery services to both their

customers as well as walk-in customers at their service centres.

“We are bringing together two leaders under this appointment – a leading IT

distributor and a top data recovery specialist. micronDR will use our Class 10 certified

clean room facilities to manage all the data recovery services for

Prestigio products covering portable storage and notebooks,” said Patrick Koh, Chief

Executive Officer of micronDR.

Established in Singapore, micronDR (S) Pte Ltd is a disaster and data recovery

specialist. Housing Southeast Asia’s first certified Class 10 clean room in its laboratory,

it offers data recovery and business continuity services for all types of digital storage
