Server Data Recovery
Our team works with a wide range of server platforms, recovering data from hardware-level damage, OS corruption, or RAID controller errors. We isolate affected volumes, stabilize unstable systems, and retrieve structured and unstructured data with careful attention to configuration and architecture. With extensive experience and a commitment to precision, we ensure your server infrastructure is restored quickly, securely, and with minimal disruption to your operations.

The Role of Servers in Business Infrastructure
Servers form the operational core of modern organizations. They host databases, manage file systems, run virtual machines, and support critical applications. A server outage can cascade through business functions – affecting communications, client access, and internal processes. Recovery, therefore, isn’t optional – it’s essential.
Common Causes of Server Data Loss
Server failures can stem from various technical issues. Mechanical drive failure is a primary risk, especially in systems subjected to continuous use. Other causes include power surges, RAID controller errors, OS-level corruption, failed software updates, accidental deletion, and ransomware. In virtualized environments, host instability or faulty snapshots may render entire VMs inaccessible.
Our Recovery Process
We start with a detailed assessment of your server and associated storage systems. This diagnostic phase helps us pinpoint the failure and choose a recovery path that minimizes risk. Whether the problem lies in a standalone unit, a RAID-based build, or a virtual machine, we extract and preserve the recoverable data using tailored techniques suited to your configuration.
Whenever possible, recovery is performed using non-destructive methods. If hardware intervention is required, we operate within certified cleanroom facilities to prevent contamination. Logical data repair is carried out using advanced utilities that maintain file hierarchy, system metadata, and file integrity. The recovered data is then prepared for reintegration, transfer, or archiving depending on your needs.
Security and Confidentiality
Data security underpins every phase of our work. From media handling to digital imaging, we adhere to internal security protocols and relevant compliance standards. Your information is never exposed to unauthorized access, and all work is performed in a controlled, access-restricted environment. We also accommodate custom NDA agreements upon request.
Supported Platforms and Environments
Our team handles a wide variety of server types, including those running Windows Server, Linux (various distributions), VMware ESXi, and Microsoft Hyper-V. We’re equipped to work with physical servers, virtualized instances, RAID-based configurations, and hybrid deployments – each case evaluated and handled individually to match its architecture and failure type.
Response Time
In a server failure scenario, early action can be an important factor. Prolonged inaccessibility can lead to cascading software errors, data corruption, or compliance violations. The sooner recovery begins, the better the chances of full restoration. If you’re facing a server outage, we’re ready to intervene – quickly, methodically, and with precision.

Your Recovery Journey: What to Expect
Step 1: Getting in Touch
If you’ve lost data or your device is acting strange, the first thing to do is reach out. Our team is here to help 24/7. We’ll ask a few questions to understand what happened and let you know if recovery is possible.
Step 2: Sending Us Your Device
We’ll explain how to safely pack and ship your device to us. As soon as we receive it – whether it’s a hard drive, SSD, USB, RAID, or memory card – we’ll run tests to find out what went wrong. This might be physical damage, file system errors, or a virus like ransomware.
Step 3: Recovery Plan and Your OK
Once we know what’s going on, we’ll send you a summary that includes what data we expect to recover, how long it’ll take, and the cost. We only move forward if you give the go-ahead. And remember – if we can’t recover your data, you don’t pay.
Step 4: Recovering Your Files
Our engineers use pro-grade tools (and cleanrooms when needed) to recover your files safely. Whether it’s rebuilding a RAID, fixing firmware, or recovering deleted files – we’ll do what’s needed to bring your data back without risk.
Step 5: Reviewing and Getting Your Data
After recovery, you’ll get a full list of the files we recovered. Once you confirm everything looks good, we’ll send the data back on an external drive, through the cloud, or whatever works best for you. We can also return your original device.
Step 6: Help After Recovery
We’ll walk you through what we recovered and offer tips to avoid future problems. Need help setting up backups or keeping your files safe? We’ve got you. Our support doesn’t end when the recovery does.
SERVER DATA RECOVERY FAQ
What are the chances of successful data recovery from a server?
Success depends on the nature of the failure. Logical errors are often recoverable, while severe physical damage can reduce the chances. We usually provide a preliminary estimate of the likelihood of successful recovery.
What kind of failures do you work with?
Our engineers recover data from hardware failures, RAID controller failures, OS corruption, file system errors, malware attacks and accidental deletions. We also work with servers affected by fire or flooding.
What types of servers do you recover?
We work with all major types of servers - physical, virtual, rackmount, blade servers, as well as clusters and hyperconverged systems. We recover data from single HDD/SSDs, RAID arrays, NAS and SAN solutions. We support Windows Server (including AD, Exchange, SQL), Linux/Unix, virtual platforms like VMware, Hyper-V, ESXi, as well as specific file systems and non-standard configurations. We consider each case individually - taking into account the architecture, the role of the server and the nature of the failure.
How can I avoid prolonged downtime after a server failure?
To minimize downtime, immediate and careful action is critical. Power down the affected server to prevent further damage and avoid attempting restarts, drive swaps, or recovery utilities on your own - this can worsen the situation. If possible, document the system setup and storage configuration, then contact a professional recovery service without delay. Early diagnostics significantly improve the chances of a successful recovery. We also recommend having a disaster response plan in place, including verified backups and a trusted recovery provider. At RaidDataRecovery, we offer expedited diagnostics and emergency recovery options to help restore operations as quickly as possible.
