Degraded RAID

RAID in Degraded Mode
Repairing any RAID when one or more RAID drives are in degraded mode, fail or go offline requires specialized equipment. In order to have a successful data recovery, you must have a thorough knowledge of hex, drive structures, MFT mount points and offsets to avoid destroying data while attempting to repair the degraded array.

If you have already tried to repair the degraded RAID array and it's still running in degraded mode, you should stop. DO NOT attempt a forced rebuild. Doing so will wipe out your company's data!

RAID repair utilities and software are not designed to restore data or rebuild RAID arrays that are in degraded mode due to failing hard drives. This requires specialized equipment and professional training.

Swapping hard drives or re-ordering drives in a degraded or offline RAID array runs the risk of overwriting the striping and parity, making it nearly impossible to rebuild your array and recover your company's vital data.
