ReFS (Resiliant File System) Data Recovery

MS ReFS (Resiliant File System) Data Recovery Microsoft introduced their Resilient File System (ReFS) with Windows Server 2012. It is a 'self repairing' file system that detects errors and rebuilds data. MjM Data Recovery are now able to recover data from this file system from single drive servers  to multi drive raid systems . Please visit our main website for details of our Data Recovery Services .

Netgear SC101 Data Recovery

Netgear SC101 Data Recovery Data recovery from SC101 and SC101T devices The file systems used by the Netgear SC101 and the SC101T are either Zetera ZFS or Dataplow SFS.  We have a full understanding of these file systems and are able to recover where other fail. Whether your drive has suffered a logical failure and your data has completely vanished or if the drive has mechanical or other physical problems we are able to recover the data. For see the following link for details about our SC101 data recovery services . These units were fairly popular when they first arrived but very soon, reports starting coming in that there were problems with the power supply and over heating. In some cases this resulted with hard disk failure. A new model was then brought out, the SC101T which addressed many of the problems. But there were still problems with the file system. A firmware update was brought out to address the problem, but by now there were several other genuine NAS b...

Major Breakthrough in SSD Data Recovery

Major Breakthrough in SSD Data Recovery MjM Data Recovery have developed techniques to recover data from non responsive SSD drives. The symptoms are that the computer will no longer recognise the device and the reason is that the drive goes into a 'BUSY' or BSY state. When the drive is in this state, it will not respond to any command resulting with no access to the data stored on it. We are able to recover data from most SSD drives with this problem include SED (Self Encrypting Drives) such as those With Sandforce Processors. For more information, please check our website about SSD Recovery Note: We can also perform data recovery/repair on these devices for other Data Recovery companies.

Broadberry Data Recovery

Broadberry Data Recovery MjM Data Recovery can recover data from Broadberry servers. These are mainly used in large organisations and can have several VMs stored on the same system or a Cloud type infrastructure can be used. A failure of the storage system can result in lost access by users. if the BB system is running all of the critical days to day business systems then a failure results with people unable to work. Speed is essential when recovering from this type of problem and we are here to help. We can recover critical data usually very quickly and help to get your business back up and running as quickly as possible. For more information please see our Broadberry Data Recovery section of our website.

RAID 5 Data Recovery

RAID 5 Data Recovery When a customer comes to use with a RAID 5 query, it is important that our engineer understands the concept of RAID 5, the different versions and in some cases proprietary variations. A working RAID 5 system will consist of at least 3 drives. The total accessible data are will be the equivalant of the total sum of n -1 times the size of the smallest of the drives in array) so if we build a RAID 5 array that has 4 x 36 Gb drives the size of the array would be 36 x (4-1) which gives 36 x 3 = 108 Gbytes. The remaining 36 Gb is used to calculate parity this is done using XOR calculations For RAID 5 there is a parity block that shifts its position in the array for each stripe.. The diagram above shows our 4-drive raid 5 array with the Parity block (p) marked in each stripe (A, B, C, D) and Data blocks marked A1, A2 ... through .. D2, D3 Lets explain this a bit more clearly. In the above array it shows the first four stripes or rows (A B C ...
Website update.. New article about the purpose of the ATA register on a hard disk, programming it and how to check for errors. The article describes the different ports on a hard disk and their purpose. These ports are commonly used by advanced data recovery systems where direct port access is used to read and write to hard disks. In particular when reading and writing the system or factory area on the hard disk requires usage of these ports in order to gain the access required to modify and repair damaged system modules on hard disks.

SSD Data Recovery

SSD Data Recovery SSD Drives are becoming more commonly used in a whole range of applications, from laptop computers to mobile phones. As dependence on data becomes an increasing part of everyday life losing it can be a catastrophe. This is where we come in to help. The latest advances in SSD data recovery We are now able to use direct access to many SSD drives which means we can fix drives with firmware problems or drives with passwords set and in some cases we can access the data directly through the processor on the drive. As long as the unit is alive we can access the data. It may not show in your computer or laptop any more but if the circuit is working there is an excellent chance our new technique will enable access to the data. Advanced SSD Data Recovery We are able to; Read the User and Master passwords Reset the user and master password Direct reading of memory chip data using physical-level access through controller - even on unrecognised SSD drives. ...
