If a hard drive has crashed, or you just updated the firmware and the device will not boot, or it has resulted in a corrupt volume, they will help you decide on the best way forward to restore your system.
If you have a failed RAID, or a RAID rebuild failed, or you have tried any other form of recovery that did not work, please stop immediately. Further data recovery attempts could easily cause further data damage – or even complete data loss.
It is important that each drive is securely backed up before any further action is taken. Our engineers recover from all data loss scenarios, including:
Cannot access the share
Automatc rebuild failed
Corrupt file system or RAID
Hot spare did not work
Corrupt volume
Retrodata engineers are able to respond swiftly to any data crisis. If you cannot access your device or have a data crisis, please call. We are aware of the impact of system downtime, and we will move quickly to restore lost data, recover your systems, and have you up and running. Within hours.
Their RAID recovery skills lead the industry, and they regularly recover RAID data from failed drives that other data recovery providers have considered unrecoverable. All RAID levels are supported; RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 10, RAID 5, RAID 6 and all nested and proprietary levels.
