THE RAID RECOVERY
PROCESS |
|
Contact ReWave toll-free at
866-739-2835 or
submit a free quote form
for RAID recovery. We are
available 24/7 to meet
your RAID recovery needs.
|
|
|
|
A
data recovery technician will immediately assist you
with a free quote for
recovery and instructions
on
how to receive a free evaluation to determine the
cause of RAID failure and cost for recovery. You can bring your RAID to one
of our
data recovery labs or you can ship your RAID
using our shipping instructions.
|
|
|
|
Upon receipt a RAID engineer
will perform a free evaluation of the array
(which normally takes anywhere from 1 - 24 hours.) You will be
contacted
with the
results and given the choice to move forward
with the recovery. The actual recovery
process will
then
begin.

RAID
LEVELS WE SUPPORT |
|
ReWave uses
sophisticated recovery tools & proprietary software that allows
us to
recover
data from all
levels
of RAID (redundant array of independent disks). Listed
below are some
of the most common
RAID levels we support.
ReWave also supports a
non-RAID collection of drives called spanning.
Spanning
is also
referred to as JBOD (just a bunch of disks). Spanning
allows drives
of the
same or different sizes to be seen as a single volume
without wasting drive space.
This
method essentially
fills up the space on one drive, continues writing data to the
next
drive, and so on. Since it
is not a RAID level, it
does not benefit from any type
of fault tolerance
RAID provides nor
does it offer any improvements in
performance.
In the event of a drive
failure, the data is
lost only on that particular drive.
Spanning
is currently used in external hard
drives, servers,
network attached storage units
(NAS), and
snap servers.

WHAT
IS RAID? |
|
The term RAID represents
"Redundant Array of Inexpensive Disks". RAID is
typically used
for increased capacity, performance, and reliability. In
terms of
reliability, RAID failure is far
more likely than the failure of single disk systems.
ReWave provides RAID recovery
for all levels of RAID.

|
WHAT CAUSES RAID FAILURE? |
|
There can be many
reasons for RAID failure. Hardware
failure is the most common
reason
and usually results from disk or controller problems.
Abrupt power failure is
another reason
for RAID failure, because
it can disrupt logical volumes and destroy
the RAID file
structure in place.
Regardless of the reason for RAID failure,
it is
important that you allow a trained RAID
recovery
technician to recover your RAID.
Permanent data corruption in the array can occur if
the
wrong steps are taken.

WHAT
TO DO IF YOU HAVE A FAILED RAID: |
|
If you
experience problems with your RAID array, please do not attempt
to correct
the problem
yourself. By taking matters into your own hands, you
could overwrite
parity data making RAID
recovery more difficult. Please follow
the steps below and
contact ReWave for assistance at
866-739-2835.
