Southampton, with its major port, shipping industry, logistics networks, financial services, and public administration, is one of the UK’s most important business and transport hubs. Every day, thousands of operations rely on server infrastructures to handle shipping manifests, financial records, logistics planning, and public services. When a server fails—whether due to RAID errors, disk crashes, or virtualisation issues—the disruption can be critical.

With over 15 years of proven experience, RecData offers professional Server Data Recovery in Southampton, supporting enterprises and institutions with secure, efficient, and reliable recovery services.

Common Server Failures in Southampton

RecData engineers frequently resolve:

RAID rebuild failures in Dell, HP, and IBM servers.
Multiple drive failures in RAID 1, RAID 5, and RAID 10 arrays.
Corrupted VMware ESXi and Hyper-V datastores.
SQL Server, Oracle, and PostgreSQL database corruption.
Controller or backplane faults interrupting access to data.

All recovery is performed in ISO-certified clean rooms, ensuring the highest levels of data safety and confidentiality.

RAID 1 – Vital for Healthcare and Public Services

RAID 1 mirroring is widely adopted in Southampton’s hospitals, clinics, and local councils for its resilience and redundancy.

Case Study (Southampton Construction Company):
A RAID 1 HP ProLiant server storing patient scheduling data failed after both mirrored disks degraded simultaneously. RecData engineers stabilised the drives and successfully restored the database, ensuring continuity of healthcare services.

RAID 5 – Popular in Shipping and Logistics

RAID 5 arrays are heavily used in Southampton’s shipping and logistics companies, balancing speed, capacity, and reliability.

Case Study (Southampton shipping company):
A Dell PowerEdge R740 RAID 5 server failed when two disks dropped during a rebuild, putting vital cargo records at risk. RecData manually reconstructed the array and recovered 100% of the data, allowing international shipments to continue without delay.

Virtualisation – VMware & Hyper-V

Southampton’s financial and tech industries rely on virtualised environments for flexible and scalable IT solutions.

Case Study (Southampton fintech firm):
A VMware ESXi datastore was corrupted following a sudden power outage, leaving multiple client services offline. RecData engineers rebuilt the datastore and restored the virtual machines, minimising downtime and financial impact.

Database Recovery – SQL, Oracle & PostgreSQL

Databases play a central role in Southampton’s education and government institutions.

Case Study (Southampton Law Firm):
A RAID 10 Microsoft SQL Server hosting company records suffered controller failure. RecData engineers recovered the full database within 48 hours, ensuring uninterrupted public services.
