Recover Data From A Broken RAID Level 5 or 0 Array With RAID Reconstructor
Even if you do not know the RAID parameters, such as drive order, block size and direction of rotation, RAID Reconstructor will analyze your drives and determine the correct values. You will then be able to create a copy of the reconstructed RAID in an image file or on a physical drive.
Once you created an image you can use it for further data recovery processing with Runtime's GetDataBack. If you create the image on another physical drive, you can process it with GetDataBack too or you might even be able to directly boot from it.
RAID Reconstructor is read-only. It will not try to "fix" your RAID. It will merely create a copy of your RAID at another location. It will collect sector by sector from each single drive involved and write these sectors in the correct order to the designated destination. This process is also called "de-striping".
Because one drive is redundant in RAID 5, it is sufficient to have one less than the original number of drives (N) in the array. RAID Reconstructor can recalculate the original data from the N-1 drives. For a RAID-0 (striped) array you will need both drives.
The RAID Reconstructor will recover both, hardware and software RAIDs. It will recover from broken Windows Dynamic Disk sets.

Read This Before Attempting to Recover Your RAID 0 Data
Most RAID recovery systems use an algorithm where an exhaustive scan of the drive is performed to locate lost volumes. It recovers data from corrupted RAID configuration, failed/ bad Controller card, damaged/ deleted/ corrupted volumes even from initialized disks. In the case of RAID 0, the information is not repeated on another disc so it is vital to be able to recover all of the information that was lost.
Recover Data From A Broken RAID Level 5 or 0 Array With RAID Reconstructor
Runtime's RAID Reconstructor will help you to recover data from a broken RAID Level 5 Array consisting of 3 to 14 drives, RAID Level 0 Array (Striping) consisting of 2 drives.
The Pros and Cons of RAID Recovery Software for RAID Data Recovery
The purpose of raid recovery software is to detect the type of the original RAID array and in some instances, still allow for fully manual operation. It makes recovery of a raid system as easy as a single disc system. Many of the raid software programs are able to detect the type of raid array and go to work recovering the data that has been lost. Most raid software also allows you to back up the information before you fix it.
RAID recovery for Linux Systems
As most people realize, dealing with Linux issues is not the same as dealing with Windows or other systems. The same is true when you encounter RAID issues and need to use Raid recovery for your Linux.
Choosing A RAID Recovery Service for Your RAID System
A RAID recovery service should be chosen based on your particular circumstances and needs. If you do not know what the problem is you should never attempt to recover the information yourself. When it comes to computers, things happen - and always at the most inopportune times.
