As we know, RAID recovery is one of the most complicated and challenging recovery procedures, and therefore, the cost is always very expensive. RAID systems are susceptible to the same ailments that plague single hard drive like logical problems, human error, viruses and physical damage. Otherwise, they may suffer from RAID array failure, controller failure, server registry configurations lost, accidental reconfigurations of RAID drives, multiple drive failure, and so on.
Well, any RAID system may be fault-tolerant, but they are not fault proof. More often than not, most commercial RAID implementations can tolerate the loss of a single hard drive by providing increased data security. In case bad things happen to the RAID controller or configuration (lost, damaged and rebuild by mistake…), your data may be compromised, thus data recovery is necessary.
2. How RAID data recovery works?
The utility will extract the data from multiple HD in a RAID system, and work to rebuild the correct data according to a variety of RAID data array, independent from hardware array card or server system. The essence of the RAID recovery procedures is to crack the algorithm of a variety of RAID cards, or simulate the RAID card to read data scattering among multiple segment hard drives and recompose it in a correct form to a new storage medium by analyzing the data structures of the multiple segment hard drives in the RAID system directly.
Many RAID data recovery companies out there claims to recover lost or deleted data when RAID servers are down using their tools. Several excellent RAID recovery software utilities currently available in the market like WINHEX, Run Time, and R-Studio for example, are prominent at some points.
The merits of these software utilities are well talked most of the time amongst professionals and common users worldwide. Here the list of reviews collected based on in-depth analysis.
WINHEX
With manual analysis available; complicated operations are always in need of experience and expertise.
Run Time
With automatic analysis available; users can not have DirectView of the rebuilt data; inconvenient operation.
R-Studio
With manual analysis available; complicated operations are always in need of experience and expertise.
