RAID Data Recovery

RAID may be considered as fault tolerant; however is not data loss proof. The best way to deal with RAID array failure is "leave it like that" and call professional Data Recovery Company for further evaluation and recovery. Within the industry, we have been rated as one of the best in the field of RAID Data Recovery; and have performed thousands of mission critical recoveries successfully.

Raid Failures Situation:
Mostly, the causes for failure of RAID arrays is mainly due to the reasons mentioned below; and in many cases human error has worsened the situation further. We have seen that "let me try myself" feeling from the customer or regular computer technicians has actually aggravated the failure, which resulted in irrecoverable loss of critical data.

• RAID Controller failure
• Raid configuration lost
• Accidental reconfiguration and initialization of RAID array
• Multiple drives failure
• Raid partition missing
• Partition was formatted
• Virus Damage

Process:
Disk Doctors' engineers treat every RAID recovery as a priority. Once the server or drives reach our lab, our engineers will evaluate them and find out the problem with the raid array. In the evaluation process, we will determine whether RAID has logical corruption to the array structure, or the drives in the RAID array have suffered physical damage. In the case of logical corruption, our engineer will make a raw image onto Disk Doctors' storage media, and then destripe the array using proprietary tools (software and hardware). This process can be repeated several times to get better result. In case of physical damage to a drive(s), each drive will be taken to clean room and fixed, and then raw image will be taken, and destripe process will be done on the whole raid array.

Prices:
Disk Doctors Lab has recovered thousands of servers over the years. As no two data recovery situations are identical, therefore, it is impossible to give a fix pricing without the initial FREE Evaluation. Generally speaking, for RAID server recovery, price range starts from $1250. Emergency services are available 24/7 at premium.

Turn Around Time
Disk Doctors put all resources to recover your valuable data as fast as possible. As every situation is differed in RAID data recovery, delivery time and recovery cost can not be determined until the server is evaluated. The free evaluation is started as soon as we get the server or drives. Depending upon condition and number of the drives in a raid server; in most of the cases evaluation will be done within 2 to 6 hours of receiving the media. A typical RAID data recovery turn-around time including free evaluation is usually between 3 and 7 days. Some severe can take more time.

We also offer Rush Service on Raid servers at premium; which means our RAID recovery engineers will work 24/7 and try their best to finish it as soon as possible; which may be done in as little as 1 to 2 business days.
