Recovery from servers and RAID arrays

– Has your company’s server stopped booting?

– When attempting to boot, the server "couldn't find" a disk in the RAID array?

– Is the server reporting a degraded mode of operation?

Recovery from servers and RAID arrays

There has likely been a failure of several hard drives in the RAID array on your server, causing an emergency shutdown and data corruption.

There are various RAID configurations, including:
  • RAID 0 – High-performance striped array without fault tolerance.
  • RAID 1 – Mirrored disk array.
  • RAID 2 – Uses Hamming code.
  • RAID 3 & 4 – Striped arrays with dedicated parity disk.
  • RAID 5 – Striped array with distributed parity.
  • RAID 6 – Striped array with dual independent parity.
  • RAID 10 – A combination of RAID 0 with RAID 1 arrays.
  • RAID 50 – RAID 0 created from RAID 5 arrays.
  • RAID 60 – RAID 0 built from RAID 6 arrays.
  • The choice of RAID configuration depends on whether your data is protected or not. In arrays without fault tolerance, a single failed disk can prevent the server from booting. In fault-tolerant RAID arrays, the server will continue to function in a degraded state, but if another disk fails, the server will stop working entirely.

    In such situations, it’s important to determine the sequence of disk failures, as the first failed disk may contain outdated data. If a system administrator attempts to recover disks on their own, it can lead to a major error! If the server "activates" the first failed disk, it will begin recovering data from the point of failure, which could be months or even years ago, resulting in complete data loss and making recovery impossible!

    Our company has specialized equipment for recovering data from RAID systems. We can "rebuild" the RAID array manually on our equipment and recover the lost information.

    We operate throughout Kazakhstan. You can send your damaged equipment via courier, drivers, indriver, or taxi. After inspection, we will contact you to discuss possible solutions. Since we deal with corporate servers, the value of the data is much higher than that of regular computers. Therefore, we strongly recommend avoiding attempts to recover the server on your own, as a disk excluded by the server is already faulty. Attempting to "reconnect" disks may change the sequence of the disks in the array and recreate the RAID structure.

    We specialize in the following services:

  • Data recovery from hard drives
  • Data recovery from HDD
  • Recovery of deleted data
  • Data recovery after formatting
  • File recovery
  • Information recovery
  • Hard drive repair
  • RAID system and server recovery
  • RAID information recovery
  • Don’t hesitate to contact us to resolve your data issues. We are ready to help you recover lost data and restore server functionality.
