RAID Server Recovery
We specialise in the recovery of all types of RAID array. For our standard service we aim to recover data from a failed RAID array within 3 working days.
Costs are generally dependent on the number of drives which must be repaired in order to retrieve the data, and the complexity of re-constructing the RAID array. In some cases, such as RAID-1 where the data is mirrored, the cost is likely to be the same as for single hard drive recovery since either drive may be recovered in order to obtain the full original data. However, for more complex RAID arrangements such as RAID-5, the cost is likely to increase broadly in line with the number of drives involved in the RAID array – a rough guideline for such cases would be £550 per hard drive, but this should be considered a maximum, and depending on the complexities of the task, the actual cost we quote may be considerably lower than this.
As with all our recoveries, these prices are only charged where the recovery is successful. If the data cannot be recovered we charge a flat fee of £30 per hard drive.
Please contact us if you wish to discuss pricing of a particular RAID configuration, or if you require priority recovery of a RAID array or RAID server.
When shipping RAID devices to us, we recommend that you include the RAID controller along with the drives. The data can be recovered without this, but it can expedite the recovery process.
