RAID Array and Server Data Recovery in Kuwait
A company server that stopped, a RAID array that dropped, or a NAS showing empty volumes? We treat the array as one unit: image every disk separately, work out the disk order and stripe size mathematically, then extract files and databases from the rebuilt array.
- RAID 0/1/5/6/10 and NAS
- Company databases
- NDA on request

- NDAA signed confidentiality undertaking on request
Cases companies bring us
Switch the server off and do not let anything rebuild the array before it is examined.
- Two or more disks dropped out of a RAID 5
- The RAID controller failed or lost its configuration
- A rebuild started and stopped halfway
- A NAS that runs but shows empty volumes
- A server that will not boot after a power cut
- Partitions or virtual machines deleted by mistake
- The accounting database on the server will not open
- A system upgrade scrambled the disk order
The common mistake: rebuilding first
What loses company data is rarely the disk failure itself; it is the rebuild attempted straight after it. A rebuild writes to the healthy disks, so if the controller picks the wrong order, good data becomes damaged data with no way back.
We start from the opposite end. The disks come out, numbered exactly as they sat in the bays, and each one is imaged sector by sector. The disk order, stripe size and parity rotation are then derived from the content of those images, and the array is rebuilt virtually, without touching the original disks.
And because we are software engineers as much as hardware technicians, we do not stop at files: we recover the accounting or inventory database, reattach it to its program, test it, and hand it over working.
How we work on an array
- 1
Documentation
Record bay order, the state of every disk and of the controller before anything is removed.
- 2
Imaging
A full sector-by-sector image of every disk, and work continues on the images only.
- 3
Rebuilding
Derive order, stripe size and parity rotation, and assemble the array virtually.
- 4
Extraction
Pull files, databases and virtual machines out of the rebuilt array.
- 5
Back online
Repair the database, reattach it to its program and test it before handover.
Before you call us, do not do this
- Do not start a rebuild, and do not accept the controller offering one
- Do not change the order of the disks in the bays, and do not mix them up
- Do not initialise the array or create a new volume
- Do not swap the failed disk for a new one before inspection
- Do not reset the controller to factory settings
- Do not keep powering the server up hoping it will work
Switch the server off and leave the disks as they are; that alone preserves most of the chance of recovery.

Frequently asked questions
Two disks dropped in a RAID 5. Is it over?
Not necessarily. One of them has often left the array long before the other, and its content can complete the picture. What matters is not attempting a rebuild before inspection.
Do you handle NAS devices?
Yes: Synology, QNAP and others, including Linux-based volume formats. We work on the disks outside the enclosure.
Can you recover virtual machines?
Yes. VMware and Hyper-V files can be extracted from the rebuilt array, and their inner content pulled out where that is needed.
Our accounting database is corrupt. Can it be repaired?
Yes, and it is a core part of what we do. We work with SQL Server, MySQL and Access, repair the logical damage after taking a safe copy, then reattach the program and test it.
How long does array recovery take?
Inspection and imaging depend on the number and size of disks, usually two to four days before a final verdict. You receive the report before any work begins.
Does company data stay confidential?
Yes. Access is limited to the responsible engineer, a confidentiality undertaking can be signed when the job is received, and our working copies are erased once you have your recovered data.
