Data Recovery To Your Rescue
Your business may encounter loss of data from hard drive or a hard drive malfunction that can prove detrimental to your budget. Server disaster recovery is possible if you know what to do in case this happens and whose help to ask for. The question remains whether to what extent can data be recovered from server databases. Server disaster recovery has been possible of up to forty-six gigabytes. If there is no damage to the hard disk and data loss is attributed to human error or a system malfunction that is minor, it can be solved with a data recovery software.
This software provides an 'un-erase' feature that will allow you to recover data, if it is erased by accident and cannot be found, not even in the Recycle Bin. There are many server disaster recovery utilities available on the internet, that you can download for free, the disadvantage being that they provide limited features in comparison to the paid versions. Some of these are McAfee Utilities, Gateway GoBack, Ontrack System Suite and Norton SystemWorks, that can cost you between $40 and $60. But, if the problem is much more serious than a loss of data, then it is better to send the hard drive to a server disaster recovery service provider.
Before doing this, inform yourself on the reputation of the service provider in server disaster recovery. Ask for how much it would cost and the time it would take. It should not take more than 3 to 5 days and cost between $300 and $2500. Some of the recommended data recovery companies are Ontrack, CBL Data Recovery Technologies, Data Recovery Clinic, Vogon International and Action Front. But before getting to this, try to take measures beforehand. Important data, especially server databases, should be backed up and businesses should be aware of the proper preventive measures.
