RAID 6 Data Recovery Services
RAID 6 Recovery Expertise
RAID 6 Array
Like RAID 5, RAID 6 uses parity instead of mirroring for data redundancy. In the case of RAID 6 is utilises two parity stripes on each disk. It allows for two disk failures within the RAID set before any data is lost. This configuration offers very high fault- and drive-failure tolerance and is most often used for environments that need long data retention periods such as archiving.
Because RAID 6 requires each set of parities to be calculated separately, this slows write performance. Implementing RAID 6 is also more expensive because of the two extra disks required for parity. Although RAID 6 is able to overcome a 2 concurrent drive failures, once failed, they need to be rebuilt or replaced immediately. Like Raid 5, if another disk happens to fail or a RAID controller malfunctions, then data recovery is the only option to prevent permanent loss of data.

What Makes a RAID Fail
A RAID can fail for all sorts of reasons, from hardware faults and human error to software glitches and application problems. If you need RAID array or RAID drive data recovery, we’re here to support you.
- RAID configuration corruption
- Environmental damage (lightning, flood, bushfire, cyclone)
- Rough handling or vibration damage
- Overheating
- Intermittent or multiple drive failure
- Power issues (power surges, power supply burnout or failure, circuit malfunction)
- RAID controller failure
- Drive incompatibility
- Damaged connector
- Manufacturer defect
- Files, drives, arrays or partitions accidentally deleted or reformatted
- Drives replaced incorrectly
- Files, databases or RAID settings overwritten
- Sabotage by an employee
- Lost/forgotten password
- RAID set up incorrectly
- Failed backups or software
- Virus or worm infection
- Corrupted or missing data
- Corrupted directories or firmware
- Misconfiguration (server registry, RAID)
- Files that fail to load or run
- Locked or corrupted databases
- Tables deleted
Choose How We Recover Your Data
Call us and our skilled Australian team will work directly with you to find the best recovery solution. Most recoveries happen at our secure facility, but some complex server setups, including RAID, NAS and SAN systems, can need a more flexible approach. We offer several options, with the utmost respect for your company’s security protocols and any limits on moving equipment.
At our Australian centre
Most devices come to our certified secure facility, where they’re recovered under our Economy, Standard, or Priority service.
Remote
For many data loss situations without mechanical or physical damage, we offer a secure Remote Data Recovery service.
Onsite
In certain data loss scenarios, we can also carry out Onsite Data Recovery.
Companies Worldwide Count on DriveSavers
DriveSavers supports over 20,000 data recovery business partners worldwide. Your business could be one of them! Some of our satisfied customers include companies such as Coca Cola, Facebook, Google, AT&T, Sony, NASA, and many others.
Data Security
During Data Recovery
Anyone can say they're secure. DriveSavers can show it: SSAE 18, SOC 2, ISO Class 5 Cleanroom and PCI DSS, with your data handled under Australian privacy requirements. See the proof.
RAID Experts You Can Rely On
With more than 40 years in the industry, our engineers bring deep technical know-how to every RAID case, which is what lies behind one of the strongest RAID recovery rates in the business. We specialise in all operating systems and high-capacity devices, from RAID systems, NAS and SAN to multi-disk servers. DriveSavers is a service you can trust: we consistently recover lost databases, ERP and accounting systems, mail servers and other mission-critical data for organisations of every size.
RAID devices differ from one manufacturer to the next, and DriveSavers engineers know each manufacturer’s components and configurations inside out. Our technical partnerships with RAID system and controller manufacturers give us exclusive access to the methods, tools and technologies behind RAID recovery from SSDs, HDDs and complex hybrid storage systems.
Manufacturer Approved
Leading storage media manufacturers authorise DriveSavers to open sealed drives without voiding their warranty, so you can still receive an in-warranty replacement device from the manufacturer.
Why Our ISO Cleanroom Makes the Difference
DriveSavers operates the industry’s largest state-of-the-art Certified ISO Cleanroom environment. To ensure the best possible outcomes in data recovery, all hard disk drive physical recovery operations take place in the DriveSavers state-of-the-art Cleanroom setting — the industry’s pinnacle of controlled environments.
The ISO Class 5 standard we work to follows the guidelines of the top hard drive and storage manufacturers. In the cleanroom our engineers inspect failed HDDs,find physical faults and carry out precise component-level repairs. Your original warranty stays valid.
Dust you can't see is enough to ruin an open drive. As the image shows, airborne particles landing on the platters can throw the read-write heads off and damage the platter surface during recovery. Learn more.
X-Ray Technology
X-ray technology lets our engineers diagnose a failing drive precisely, finding hidden irregularities and critical damage without putting the device at risk. We use it to confirm suspected component failure, extend what we can recover and validate our ball grid array(BGA) rework. No other data recovery lab has this technology in-house.
