RAID
5 Data Recovery
Services : 1-800-868-6940
When a RAID 5
fails, many of
our customers
come to us desperate
for help. In most
instances, a person's
job or business
can be on the
line when this
type of data loss
occurs. Many corporate
executives don't
understand why
there wasn't a
backup of the
data prior to
the crash, and
that can be a
hard thing to
explain. We understand
how difficult
this time can
be, and we work
with you every
step of the way
in order to get
your data back
as quickly and
efficiently as
possible.
One of the biggest
concerns we have
from potential
customers is:
"will your services
make matters worse?"
The answer is
a resounding NO.
We start off with
an initial evaluation
just to determine
the integrity
of the drives,
and confirm they
are functioning
as they should.
This usually consists
of just a quick
powerup to verify
there is no unusual
noises. If the
customer has specified
that a drive is
making unusual
noises, then we
do not risk powering
it up at all.
There are a series
of tests we can
perform in order
to determine how
serious the failure
is, without risking
further damage.
In situations
where there is
a physical problem
with the drives,
then we will proceed
with making whatever
repairs are necessary
in order to get
the drive functioning,
in order that
we may be able
to image it. While
we can technically
rebuild the array
in our emmulater
with one drive
missing, rarely
have we seen this
work effectively
enough to garner
the best results
in the recovery
process. It's
not impossible,
but to get the
best results we
attempt to utilize
all drives in
the array.
If all of the
drives power up
and appear to
be functioning
properly, then
we start off by
creating an image
of each drive
in the array.
These are sector-by-sector
clones. From there
we analyze the
stripe, and determine
a number of parameters
associated with
the array that
will allow us
to recover as
much data as possible.
Our vast inventory
of custom software
and hardware allows
us to recover
data from nearly
any RAID failure.
Once the recovery
is complete we
will transfer
your data to an
external drive
which you can
then restore onto
your local server.
We have multi
terrabyte capability,
so we can handle
just about any
size configuration.
