RAID & Server Data Recovery for Houston Businesses
Short answer
Do not start another rebuild. Label the drive order, leave the array powered down, and bring every member disk. We image each disk read-only, reconstruct the array offline, and quote a fixed price after the $50 same-day evaluation.
Lost a RAID array? Multiple drives failed at once? NAS won't mount? Our lab rebuilds RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, JBOD, and proprietary arrays from Synology, QNAP, Dell EMC, HP, and Drobo. Emergency service for production-down situations.

What to do (and not do) when a RAID fails
When a RAID array degrades or fails, the worst thing you can do is keep writing to it or 'try a rebuild' without a full sector-level clone. We've seen recoverable arrays destroyed by one wrong rebuild. Power down the server, label every drive in order, and call us — (936) 251-6130.
How we rebuild your array
Every drive gets imaged sector-by-sector to fresh media. We then reconstruct the array virtually using its original parameters (stripe size, parity rotation, drive order) and extract your data without touching the originals. This is the only safe way to recover a failed RAID.
NAS, virtualization, and database recovery
Synology and QNAP NAS units use proprietary on-disk formats — we have the tools and experience to handle SHR, BTRFS, and ZFS layouts. For virtualized environments, we recover VMDK and VHDX files from broken datastores, then mount and extract guest data. SQL, Exchange, and Postgres databases are reassembled and verified before delivery.

Frequently Asked Questions
Two drives failed in my RAID 5 — is the data gone?
Not necessarily. Often the 'second failure' is partial, and we can image enough of each drive to reconstruct the array. Don't attempt a rebuild — call us first.
How long does RAID recovery take?
Most arrays are reconstructed and delivered in 3–7 business days. Emergency same-day service is available for production-down situations.
Can you recover a Synology / QNAP NAS?
Yes — Synology SHR/SHR-2, QNAP, Drobo BeyondRAID, and ZFS / BTRFS arrays are all in our wheelhouse.
Do you sign NDAs?
Always. Business and legal data recovery is the majority of our work — every job is confidential and handled by background-checked technicians in-house.
