Recovering Data From RAID

Now we live in this century, when the most valuable thing we have – it is information. Its loss can lead to various troubles such as financial losses. This is because nowadays life is saturated with computers and other devices containing, large amounts of information. But, unfortunately, nobody is safe from computer failure or other devices. raid (Redundant Array of Inexpensive Disks – Redundant Array of Inexpensive Disks) – a way of combining several hard drives into one virtual device in order to increase the speed and reliability. In most cases, raid is used for multi-user corporate servers to store large amounts of information. When failure of an array, blocked the work of the entire organization, so in the recovery disc information most important is the time for which data will be restored to the raid. We understand the criticality of the situation and for this we offer such service as a raid rebuild the clock.

Here, we will not give any recommendations on the restoration of raid arrays. From my own experience, we know that any attempt to recreate the raid non-specialists in this field who do not know the subtleties of the organization of arrays, end fatal destruction of data raid. We only note that according to our statistics, causes of failure of raid arrays are divided into three groups: 1. Excess levels of reliability of the array. In most cases, the arrays used in a redundant drive in case of failure of one disk array continues to operate, but requires replacement of defective components. As practice shows, often replacing a failed drive does not happen and after a second drive failure, raid array fails. 2. Incorrect reconfigure the array when replacing a failed disc.

In this case, the various options, but the essence is the same, failed drive is replaced with a serviceable, and then make the restructuring of the array, which in most cases entails rubbing primary sectors array and leads to loss of information. 3. Failure of the array controller. On raid controllers do not have a single standard, even the controllers of the same company may differ significantly from each other. Failure of raid controller very often impossible to find a similar controller to re-assemble the array on it. In this case, all disks can be serviceable, but the data recovery process is similar to recovery from a failed array. We of course, well aware that a complete or partial loss of information from the raid array – it is always a serious stress for any company. In many areas require handling large volumes of data, and if it is lost access to the company can suffer serious financial loss, or just be on the brink of ruin. In such cases, the companies lost information to restore the files "a matter of life and death." Do not despair! The main activity of our company – data recovery from RAID-arrays. Contact us, we guarantee the excellent quality of work performed and complete privacy, the restored information.
