Hello, Try to find solutions for corrupted hard drives my friend has. Any advices on how to rescue files used on the server? For several days I have tried 3 softwares, R-Studio, Data Rescue and EaseUS Data Recovery none of them was able to recover any file, even if they could recover files they where all corrupted. Is there any other solution, can a linux OS with recovery software be a better choice as the system is linux based?
I guess the drives partition structure or logical structure is a mess, probably why tested recovery software are not able to recover files. Wondering if a linux based software would have a much better chance? Any idea where to go from here?
Why does the mirror technique transfers its corruptness to the mirrored healthy disk? My thoughts where that if a disk goes bad mechanically or data based it will not be able to transfer anything to the mirrored disk and you have a safety net. Mechanically yes but not when things get corrupted you seems to be out of luck and mirror technique is not helping. Wish it could be a quick "healthy check" before the start of mirroring or the mirroring settings could be set for longer settings like once a week or every second day.... then you have a chance to stop before its to late. My friend had two working drives and the following day all was lost even on the mirrored disk, that sucks... 3TB of data gone.... and both disks are spinning fine...
Regards Soren
