With over 15 years of expertise, RecData offers specialist Server Data Recovery in Leeds, trusted by enterprises, IT teams, and public institutions across West Yorkshire.

Common Server Failures in Leeds

Our engineers are highly experienced in recovering from:

RAID 1, RAID 5, and RAID 10 failures.
RAID rebuild interruptions in Dell and HP servers.
Corrupted virtual machines in VMware ESXi, Hyper-V, and Proxmox.
SQL Server and Oracle corruption in enterprise databases.
File system crashes from unexpected power outages or hardware faults.

Every recovery is performed in ISO-certified clean room laboratories, ensuring maximum security and compliance with GDPR.

RAID 1 – Critical in Healthcare and Legal Environments

Many hospitals and legal firms in Leeds use RAID 1 mirroring to keep their systems running.

Case Study (Leeds NHS practice):
A RAID 1 database server storing patient appointment data failed when both mirrored disks became unreadable after firmware corruption. RecData stabilised the media and fully recovered the data, allowing the clinic to resume operations without delays.

RAID 5 – Common in Finance and Education

RAID 5 arrays are widely adopted in Leeds for their efficiency, particularly in finance, education, and government.

Case Study (Leeds financial services firm):
A RAID 5 on an HP ProLiant DL380 suffered dual disk failure during a rebuild. The system contained client portfolio data. RecData engineers manually reconstructed the RAID and restored the data, avoiding regulatory penalties and loss of trust.

Virtualised Servers – VMware & Hyper-V

Leeds’ IT sector relies heavily on VMware and Hyper-V for virtualisation.

Case Study (Leeds digital agency):
A VMware ESXi host went offline after datastore corruption, putting multiple customer VMs at risk. RecData rebuilt the VMFS volume and restored all affected VMs, preventing extended downtime for client websites and services.

Database Recovery – SQL, Oracle & PostgreSQL

With Leeds being a hub for education and finance, databases are essential for research and operations.

Case Study (University of Leeds research project):
A RAID 10 PostgreSQL database server crashed after a power failure corrupted the file system. RecData recovered the entire dataset, safeguarding months of academic research.
