An Introduction to RAID Data RecoveryWhy RAID?
Well, not exactly. RAID systems may be fault-tolerant, but they are not fault proof. While most commercial RAID implementations can tolerate the loss of a single hard drive, if multiple hard drives fail, or other serious problems occur, RAID data recovery may be necessary. Top Data Recovery CompaniesIf the RAID recovery "techniques and methods" information below is a little too complicated for you, we can recommend several companies based on our own experiences. If downtime is just costing you too much, it would be advisable to get a quote from one of the following companies: Our #1 pick: ESS Data Recovery (datarecovery.com) offers a wide range of service levels with turnaround time from 1-10 days depending on your budget and needs. They are not only affordable, but hugely successful, especially in the RAID recovery industry, with clients ranging from small schools to Lockheed Martin and NASA. They also offer extensive information about RAID recovery on their website: RAID Data Recovery. Our #2 pick: Drivesavers data recovery has been in the data recovery business for nearly two decades and in that time has surmounted a portfolio of very famous clients ranging from the Rolling Stones to Bob Vila. Drivesavers is very expensive; possibly as much as two times the cost of other companies, but they offer quick turnaround and up-front pricing. Our #3 pick: RAID Recovery Labs is a new company offering recovery exclusively for RAID systems. They offer quick turnaround times and overall good service.
So what's the point of an expensive array if the need for RAID recovery isn't eliminated? The point is that even if the need for RAID recovery cannot be totally eliminated, depending on the RAID solution you use, it can be greatly reduced. Moreover, RAID can offer redundancy and significant performance gains over single, non-arrayed hard drives. With hard drives becoming increasingly affordable, and RAID controllers -- many of which are now being built into motherboards -- becoming increasingly available, RAID is more accessible than ever. With this new accessibility however, it is becoming more and more important that we understand exactly how RAID works, how RAID levels differ, and how RAID data recovery is done.

blew the whole IT budget, supposed to eliminate the risk of data
