In the case of RAID 1, this process is more like imaging a normal disk to recover data.

Our proprietary data recovery software, HOMBRE, was designed by our data recovery engineers to make it easier to piece a RAID array back together, regardless of the operating system, file system, or hardware manufacturer.

Whatever the cause, our data recovery team will identify the problem and give an assessment of whether RAID 1 recovery is possible.ĬLICK HERE to learn more about RAID pricing About Our Data Recovery Software Sometimes, neither disk has failed, but there is a problem with the RAID controller. This isn’t relevant if the drives failed simultaneously or within minutes of each other, but in most cases, our RAID 1 data recovery engineers have to analyze both hard drives using our proprietary RAID data recovery software and our specialist tools in order to determine whether or not one of the drives is stale. We call the other drive “stale” because its data is out-of-date. When your RAID 1 fails, the hard drive that failed most recently has the most recent copy of your data on it. But when we see RAID 1 data recovery cases in our lab, it is usually because both of these drives have failed, rather than because of a single failed drive, because the RAID configuration has redundancy between every two disks.

After all, with the redundant RAID structure of RAID 1, each drive is a duplicate of the other, and each of the disks belonging to the array should contain all the data the other ones does. In logical RAID 1 data recovery cases where both drives are physically healthy, only one of the drives needs to be worked on. You can actually take a single drive in a RAID 1 array and use it just like a normal drive, which is something you can’t do with a single disk from any other RAID system. Unlike other RAID levels which use striping across several disks, there is no disk striping or parity data on the array disks to complicate data recovery. Recovering data from a RAID 1 array storage device isn’t usually significantly more difficult than recovering data from a single hard drive.
