Southampton is one of the UK’s most important hubs for maritime trade, logistics, higher education, and healthcare. From shipping companies to research institutions and hospitals, organisations across the city depend on NAS systems such as QNAP, Synology, Buffalo, and Netgear to protect and manage critical data.

When a NAS fails, the consequences can be severe—shipping schedules disrupted, university research interrupted, or patient records temporarily lost. With over 15 years of expertise, RecData Southampton provides professional NAS and RAID recovery services, trusted across the South Coast.

Common NAS Failures in Southampton

Some of the most common issues include:

RAID rebuild errors during disk replacement.
Multiple drive crashes in high-use environments.
Firmware corruption caused by updates or sudden power loss.
File system corruption from improper shutdowns.
Accidental deletions and formatting errors.

All recoveries are performed in ISO-certified clean rooms, ensuring full data protection.

RAID 1 – Used in Healthcare and Financial Services

RAID 1 mirroring is widely used in Southampton’s hospitals, private clinics, and financial firms, where redundancy and reliability are critical.

Case Study (Southampton private hospital):
A Synology RAID 1 NAS containing patient imaging files failed after both mirrored disks developed bad sectors. RecData stabilised the drives, rebuilt the array, and restored all data in under 48 hours, preventing disruption to healthcare operations.

RAID 5 – Supporting Shipping and Research

RAID 5 is popular among Southampton’s shipping companies, logistics providers, and university research departments because of its balance between performance and redundancy.

Case Study (Southampton shipping company):
A QNAP RAID 5 array with eight drives failed when two disks crashed mid-rebuild. The system contained international freight records. RecData reconstructed the RAID manually, restoring terabytes of vital data and preventing operational delays.

Other RAID Configurations in Southampton

We also specialise in recovery for:

RAID 6 – Favoured by government and financial services.
RAID 0 – Often used in creative media firms for speed, though risky.
JBOD – Found in small offices and labs.

Case Study (Southampton design agency):
A RAID 0 system used for video production crashed when one disk failed. RecData engineers recovered most of the footage, allowing the agency to deliver projects without major setbacks.
