On-Site RAID Data Recovery in London
Some organisations – law firms, healthcare providers, financial services and government bodies – cannot let their disks leave the building. For these clients we bring our imaging and analysis equipment to your premises and carry out the recovery on-site.
Where drives have physical faults that need cleanroom work, we will carry out a controlled shutdown and, with your agreement, transport the drives securely to our London SE1 lab.
What We Can Do On-Site
- Diagnose failed arrays, controllers and drives
- Image healthy and weak drives with hardware write-blockers
- Rebuild arrays virtually and recover the data to your own storage
- Recover VMware, Hyper-V and Proxmox virtual machines
- Work within your security policies, supervised by your staff if required
Common On-Site Scenarios
- RAID 5 or RAID 6 array offline on a file or application server
- Controller or backplane failure
- Failed rebuild or accidental re-initialisation
- Storage Spaces or ZFS pool that will not import
- Ransomware or malware affecting shared storage
Before We Arrive
If your array has failed: do not force a rebuild, re-initialise the array, run CHKDSK/fsck, or swap drives between slots. Label every disk with its slot number, shut the system down cleanly if you can, and call us on 020 7064 4996. Most unrecoverable RAID cases we see were made worse by a rebuild attempted on the wrong disk.
See RAID & server data recovery for the systems we support.
