Is it safe to import a foreign config?

Sometimes. If the controller’s view matches the last healthy layout, import can be safe; if the metadata is from a different epoch...

Can RAID 5 survive two failed drives?

Not in-place, but one “failed” drive often remains readable enough to reconstruct parity offline and recover data.

Should I try a different controller or firmware?

Only after capturing the current metadata and drive states. Controller swaps can rewrite headers and commit the wrong layout.

Why did power loss kill the array with no bad disks?

Write-cache + metadata epoch mismatch. The controller may distrust its layout; recoverable with the right sequence.

How fast can I get a plan?

Same business day with logs and photos; we proceed without write risks.

⚙️ What We Do — And Why It’s Different

We are trusted experts in RAID, server, NAS, and multi-drive recovery of all RAID configurations and virtual machine environments. From RAID 5, 50 RAID 6 and 60 to RAID 1, 10 and exotic hybrid layouts. Whether your array was degraded, forcibly rebuilt, or partially wiped — we can analyze, reconstruct, and preview your files before imaging even begins.

Here’s what sets ADR apart:

True diagnostic intelligence: Our software detects real RAID geometry, role alignment, and parity rotation. Try JeannieLite™ DIY RAID diagnostic tool to assess your array and hard drives.
Remote-capable workflows: No shipping needed — just plug in and we connect to you remotely.
Fast triage, faster recovery: We aim to get you answers in hours, not weeks.

RAID Data Recovery Specialists recover data from all RAID variations, Servers, VM & Databases.

When storage fails, symptoms rarely match the real cause. Use this guide to jump straight to problem–solution pages for RAID arrays, virtual machines, databases, and controller platforms. Each page explains what it means, what not to do, safe diagnostics, and recovery options.

RAID Recovery

RAID 5 (Parity) — degraded parity, foreign config, rebuild loops.
RAID 6 (Dual Parity) — two-disk loss, mismatched parity blocks, cache/battery failures.
