Small and medium sized businesses frequently use centralised storage to allow employees to access the same data set. This storage usually consists of a dedicated server or network attached storage device. These devices are usually set in with hard disk drives in a RAID-5 array.  Such a configuration should allow the failure of one hard disk drive in the set without data loss. After failure of the disk the RAID array can be rebuilt by the systems administrator and access can continue as normal. Cheadle Data Recovery has seen many instances of multiple disk failure in a RAID set, or failure of the RAID controller which has led to data loss. Example arrays include the Thecus N4100 Pro and the Acer Altos EasyStore. Both of these devices use four hard disk drives in a RAID-5 configuration, using a linux ext3/4, XFS, or ReiserFS filesytem.   In these cases it is necessary to recover raw data from each individual hard disk drive, and then to manually rebuild the RAID array using the cloned hard disk drives to then extract the data in the form of working files. Cheadle Data Recovery has the facilities to deal with high capacity RAID systems and to extract the data in periods of 24 to 48 hours if required. Please contact us if you require specialist assistance on your failed server or RAID system.

As an end user the thought of serious damage to your hard drive can be daunting and in some cases frightening. The loss of data can mean vital work is lost and your computer may be damaged without you even knowing it. You should not attempt data recovery for yourself. To do can lead to irreversible damage and complete data loss.

All data recovery work undertaken by CDR is under a Free diagnosis and a no recovery no-fee policy.
