Expert Data Recovery for IBM Devices

Your IBM Data, Our Expertise. Recovered with Precision.

IBM has been at the forefront of enterprise technology for over a century, providing robust, scalable, and highly reliable IT infrastructure solutions. Their offerings range from powerful IBM Power Systems and versatile System x servers to cutting-edge Storwize, FlashSystem, and SAN Volume Controller (SVC) storage arrays. Businesses globally depend on IBM's hardware for mission-critical operations, data warehousing, cloud computing, and more.

Despite IBM's reputation for resilience, data loss can strike any storage system. Whether it's a critical database on an IBM Power server, an inaccessible volume on an IBM Storwize array, or a failed RAID in an IBM System x server, the impact of losing vital data can be devastating. At The RAID Specialist, we possess profound expertise and advanced proprietary tools specifically designed to recover your invaluable data from virtually any IBM device, irrespective of the model, underlying storage technology, or the complexity of the data loss incident.

Common IBM Data Loss Scenarios We Handle:

IBM's enterprise-grade solutions often involve complex RAID configurations, specialized file systems, and high-performance storage technologies. Our seasoned data recovery engineers are highly skilled in diagnosing and resolving a comprehensive array of issues impacting IBM storage, including:

• Complex RAID Array Failures: Multiple simultaneous drive failures, controller card malfunctions (e.g., IBM ServeRAID), corrupted RAID metadata, or failed rebuilds within IBM Power Systems, System x, or external storage arrays.
• Hard Drive & SSD Malfunctions: Mechanical failures, firmware corruption, bad sectors, or unreadable media across HDDs and enterprise-grade SSDs/Flash modules used in IBM systems.
• Logical Volume & File System Corruption: Damage to logical volumes, file systems (e.g., AIX JFS2, Linux Ext4, Windows NTFS, VMware VMFS), or database corruption (DB2, Oracle, SQL Server) on IBM servers or storage.
• Storage Controller & SAN Issues: Failures in Fibre Channel (FC) or iSCSI controllers, issues with SAN fabrics, or problems with IBM SVC (SAN Volume Controller) environments.
• Firmware & Software Glitches: Corrupted firmware on storage controllers, individual drives, or the underlying operating system (AIX, Linux, Windows Server) causing system instability or data inaccessibility.
• Accidental Data Manipulation: Unintentional deletion of vital files, reformatting of logical drives, or incorrect LUN presentation/masking.
• Physical Damage: Damage from environmental factors (power outages, surges, fire, flood) affecting server components, storage arrays, or individual drives.
• Virtual Machine (VM) Corruption: Damage to virtual disks (VMDK, VHD, etc.) or virtualized environments (VMware, Hyper-V, KVM) hosted on IBM servers or storage.
