Retrodata’s RAID recovery specialists have developed a recovery technique that does not just recover your data.
Your entire server is restored and recovered in a process that eliminates the need for transferring volumes of data that can take days or even weeks, as required by other recovery methods.
It also means the server does not have to be rebuilt and reconfigured – that takes place during the recovery procedure. Our engineers recover failed data from small, 16-drive RAID arrays to enterprise storage networks consisting of hundreds of drives and multiple LUNs, volumes or storage pools.
We have a proven track record in recovering data from storage servers, and SAN and Xsan networks. Even with multiple drive failures. Our engineers work with all RAID levels, and all operating systems. Some of their recovery routines even bypass the file- and operating-systems.
If your NetApp appliance has failed and has so far resisted standard recovery procedures, please stop now and contact us.
Due to the complexity of these systems, the way they integrate with other servers, and the sheer scale of configuration parameters, means NetApp data recovery is outside the remit of all but a handful of data recovery providers. They are not recoverable by the manufacturer, the company who maintains your system, or by other software specialists.
If you are currently experiencing system downtime that is inhibiting the normal operation of your business, please contact us. We will move swiftly to restore your data and return you to full operation as quickly as possible. We believe we have the most advanced RAID recovery abilities and techniques available in the industry.
