Recovery raid 5
RAID 5 recovery is the process of restoring data on an array of disks that uses RAID 5 technology. In case of failure of one of the disks in the array, data may be lost or become unavailable.
If you are experiencing a failed drive and need data recovery on your RAID 5 array, follow these steps:
1. Turn off the system: If errors or damage are detected, the server should be stopped immediately to prevent possible consequences.
2. Remember the order of devices: If you know the physical location of each hard disk (usually indicated by numbers), write it down before starting the reconstruction work.
3. Replace a damaged/non-functional hard disk: Use a new working HDD of the same model and capacity as a replacement for malfunctioning components.
4. Analysis of information about the configuration of partitions: With the help of software for monitoring the status of hardware parts, you can access data without using the operating system
and restore partition configuration information.
5. We restore the RAID array: With the help of specialized data recovery software, you can perform the process of disk array reconstruction.
It is important to note that if several hard drives are lost or more than half of the data on the RAID 5 array is damaged, the possibility of successful recovery is significantly reduced.
Therefore, it is always recommended to have system copies (backups) of all valuable data to prevent such problems and minimize information loss.
If you do not have experience working with RAID technologies or if the data is very valuable, it is better to ask for help from professionals in the services of companies
