Anyone who uses computers on a more than casual basis is very likely at some time or another to have need for data recovery services. These services can take many forms. While an individual is capable of retrieving files locked away in a logically crashed hard drive, they may not have the patience or inclination to do so. In the case of a desktop computer, the tower must be disassembled and the malfunctioning hard disk unit removed. That unit must be connected to a fully operational computer, onto which data recovery software has been installed. The software can then recognize damaged or deleted files on the crashed drive and save them to other digital storage. While this is reasonable and possible, the average PC owner is not prepared to undertake this task. And what of laptop computers? Hard drive recovery becomes far more complicated when one must disassemble a laptop and find the appropriate connecting hardware so as to access the data on the crashed drive. Hard drive recovery takes a further leap into greater difficulty when the drive itself has suffered a physical malady. In these cases, disk recovery entails removing the drive and disassembling it for either temporary repair or scanning with a magnetometer.

Perhaps the most difficult form of data recovery is RAID recovery. RAID stands for Redundant Array of Independent Disks. Originally referred to as inexpensive disks, RAID systems were designed as a low-cost method for creating large amounts of data storage. It was quickly discovered that these groupings of many hard disks in parallel could be programmed so as to access data faster than one larger disk. These many independent disks could also share redundant data so as to make information available in the event of a system failure. Data recovery can be as simple a process as using a program on your personal computer to undelete an inadvertently removed email, or as complex as retrieving data from a RAID system.
