Apple Raid systems have been extremely popular over the last few years due to their good name and robust technology. While very good raid servers, Apple servers, like all other systems, they do fail. A sudden failure of the Apple Raid server can be caused by one or more disk failed in the raid array, Apple raid controller has stopped working or hard disks have become corrupted either on their own or from the result of an upgrade or rebuild. 99% of the time we can recover from these type of failures.
Recovery Process:
Depending on the type of Apple Raid system, the data recovery process can take several paths depending on the Apple Raid configuration of your server system.
In all cases all hard disks are imaged as part of our standard recovery procedure. This ensures the intergity of the original hard disk's.
We then work with the hard disk images to process the Apple Raid system by recompiling the data. This process depends on your Apple Raid configutation but often involves de-stripping or recompiling the hard disk images and then processing the data.
We are the only data recovery company that images all hard disks before and after de-stripping-recompiling to ensure the highest possible chance of recovering your data.
If you are unsure what the file system configuration is we can also determine the configuration for you.
Apple Server Raid Configuration:
Apple Servers support several different data storage configurations, which provide the owner/business of the system with different data protection levels and different recovery chances if the Apple Server fails.
RAID 0: Data is distributed across the drives. This is the best-performing configuration with maximum data capacity. A single drive failure causes loss of all the data. This method is gradually getting replaced with other raid configurations but is still being used in basic Apple systems.
RAID 1: In this configuration two shared disks are mirrored. This configuration provides great speed but only half of the potential storage capacity. This configuration is rarely used on Apple servers but we still see some Apple systems with this configuration. Normally the only time we see Raid 1 been used on a Apple raid server is when the operating system is on a Raid 1 setup and the data volume is on a Raid 5 setup.
JBOD: This ensures full storage capacity and good performance. Single drive failure may cause all data loss. We see this very rarely on a Apple server.
RAID 5: This is now the most popular and the default for the latest Apple Raid servers. Data is distributed across the drives using backward parity rotation. This configuration is fast but space equal to one disk's capacity is lost. The Apple server system will continue to operate normally even after single drive failure. 95% of Apple jobs we receive in are setup as Raid 5.
Apple Raid systems support different interfaces. Some of the interfaces supported include: Apple PATA Drives, Apple SATA Drives, Apple IDE Drives, Apple SATA Drives, Apple SATA II Drives, Apple SATA 2 Drives, Apple III Drives, Apple SATA 3 Drives, Apple eSATA, Apple SAS Drives, Apple SCSI Drives, Apple iSCSI, Apple ESDI Drives, Apple Fibre Channel Drives, Apple Firewire Drives and Apple PCMCIA Drives.

Step 2
Once we receive server disks we will inspect and perform a full diagnostic on disks to confirm the problem and the level of data recovery that we can attain from your Raid system, we will contact you ASAP to determine what data you want recovered. We normally be in contact within 24 hours with the average standard recovery job taking 4 days to complete.Step 3
We recover the data and send you details via email for you to confirm the data before you pay us for the recovery services. Once we receive payment we will backup the data you want and copy the contents onto a suitable media. We normally advise all cleints to get everyting backed up to either data dvd or an external/portable hard disk.Step 3
We send the recovered data back to you via a Next Day Courier Service. Our aim to complete the Data Recovery Service within 24-96 hours of receiving the hard disks. We believe we offer the quickest turnaround service and best value data recovery service within the UK and Ireland.For further information on our Data Recovery Services or to confirm a Data Recovery Quote call us on 0800 075 0720, or email us to the email addresses below. We are open Monday - Friday 9am - 6pm GMT.
