Retrodata RAID Recovery

We recover crashed RAID data.

If you have a failed RAID caused by a disk failure, or you’ve swapped a RAID disk and tried a RAID rebuild that failed, we’ll recover your data. We work with any RAID level. RAID data recovery from RAID 0, RAID 1, and RAID 5 – as well as nested and proprietary RAID levels.

File recovery from any file system; Microsoft NTFS, Apple HFS+, Linux Ext2, Ext3 and Ext4, UNIX, XFS and ZFS. No matter what storage device you have – failed RAID Server, crashed NAS, SAN or Xsan, it can be recovered. Possibly even if you’ve told it cannot. We can usually even recover deleted data, or lost data, or from formatted RAID arrays.

Operating systems: Windows, Mac OS, Linux, UNIX, Novell and proprietary systems

RAID Levels RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 5, RAID 6 to RAID 30, RAID 50, RAID 60, RAID 10

File systems: NTFS, HFS+, Ext3, Ext4, ZFS, XFS, UFS

Data not recoverable?

If you have a failed RAID array that has already been to another RAID recovery provider (or even a few) and they have not been able to recover anything, unless there is obvious, catastrophic visible damage, we suggest you send us the array for diagnosis.  On most occasions, we succeed.  We don’t charge you for the analysis, and at no stage will you be under any obligation to proceed.

The more you attempt to restore the RAID, and the longer you spend trying to repair a failed RAID, the more chance you stand of causing further damage.  You could even lose all your data.  Permanently.  (This is the commonest cause of total data loss – user or IT admin error.)

Emergency RAID Recovery We can often manage to rebuild your RAID and start recovering the data within an hour of making secure backups of all the drives.

Provided no data recovery attempts have been made whatsoever, (including multiple reboots, swapping drives etc) we can practically guarantee a completely successful recovery from a Virgin RAID failure.

Our RAID Recovery System enables us to locate and extract data and repair failed RAID arrays that have sufferred from RAID rebuild failure, severe file system corruption, partial overwrite, and all logical failures.
