Probably the world's first Storage Spaces recovery

By -
Today we have done Storage Spaces recovery of a live data using a prototype of ReclaiMe Storage Spaces Recovery. Most likely we are the first in the world who were able to do this.

Our client has a computer consisting of 5 hard disks on which he created Storage Spaces volumes - parity, simple and mirror. A month later the pool failed and the client lost the whole archive of family photos. He asked Microsoft to help, but it didn't bring any good. Then he found us and we decided to try to test our prototype on a real thing.

The prototype gave good results both in recovery quality and in performance. Recovery took about two days on the computer with two processors and 6 GB memory.
So, we congratulate ourselves and the client on the world's first successful Storage Spaces recovery.

When we put the old disks (with real shares) to the corresponding bays and turned on the unit, the system has booted without a problem but…our Windows 7 PC could no longer see the NAS. QFinder 6.2.0.0726 saw the NAS and reported that the QNAP had an IP address. More than that, all the shares were available in the Control panel of QFinder.   Went to the General setting in QFinder and everything looked good in there: Tried to map a network drive as described here and got the following: " Network failure: the device was not found on the network. Please check the device status. " In Windows Network we had the following: Clicked the NAS from the...

APFS Data Recovery

By -
Apple File System, APFS for short, is a brand-new filesystem released in 2017. The goal is to replace HFS+ which has been in use on Apple computers since 1998. Formally released in late 2017, APFS filesystem began to be used by default on Apple computers running under MacOS High Sierra. Among the main features of APFS filesystem are 64-bit pointers allowing to address 2^56 blocks More accurate created/accesses/modification time measured in nanoseconds since 1970-01-01 Copy-on-write Sharing blocks between APFS volumes Native full-disk encryption We are happy to announce that now ReclaiMe data recovery software is capable of recovering data from APFS-formatted devices be it a USB thumb drive, or external hard drive, or internal SSD boot drive. You can download the latest build of ReclaiMe at www.ReclaiMe.com .
