Raid 2

Almost all SME, (Small to Medium Enterprises), have turned to RAID-configured storage on their servers in recent years for their mission-critical applications and data. In spite of being considered highly fault-tolerant, RAID does fail. RAID can fail due to component failure (including hard drives and controller cards), operating and application corruption, but most commonly, simple user error, often leaving the data unusable and corrupted.

RAID's are amongst the most complex media devices to recover data from. The data configurations are quite complex such as striped, volume, spanned etc. Sadly, different manufacturers will often use bespoke configuration applications that can add further complexity.

While state-of-the-art recovery tools and techniques are essential, ultimately it is the experience of both the recovery engineers and the software coders that makes the difference between a successful recovery and a failure. Successful RAID recovery often depends on an extremely fine-tuned sense of pattern recognition that is developed over years and years of recovering data from complex RAID configurations.
