If you have a crashed SQL Server and it is powered down, it might be safest to leave it that way. Repeated recovery attempts often cause further damage, and sometimes even a total loss of all data. If you’ve tried multiple server reboots, tried to swap a failed drive from a failed RAID array, or attempted any other recovery that has not worked, you need professional assistance. DIY Data Recovery is not recommended. It’s also likely that a Server crash will cause Exchange database corruption, if the database had been open at the time.

Retrodata’s engineers have not only advanced RAID and data recovery skills, we’re also experienced in Microsoft and Windows operating systems and Microsoft Server products.  We have experience of SQL Server failure; we understand databases and we know storage systems.  We’ve been working with Microsoft products since the days of MS-DOS.  We are therefore able to perform SQL Server Recovery in the quickest possible time, with the least amount of fuss and downtime.

Corrupt SQL Database Repair

We’re able to repair corrupt SQL databases and, where necessary, rebuild a damaged SQL registry. Whether you have hardware failure of your hard drive or RAID storage, or a corrupt SQL database, we will start the recovery immediately on receipt of the server or storage device. We understand that server downtime is critical, and we’ll do our best to get your server online again as quickly as possible. We’ll keep you informed of progress throughout the recovery.

Full Server Rebuild

Sometimes it’s possible to rebuild a crashed Windows server (including SQL, Exchange and others) following the recovery so that it is returned to you in the same state as before the failure. This can reduce your downtime potential from days to hours. All your applications, data, account and (if applicable) active directory settings will be reinstated.
