RAID Recovery - Small Computer System Interface (SCSI)
SCSI stands for Small Computer System Interface; it’s a set of parallel interface standard used to attach computers to peripheral devices for transferring data. It describes the status of commands, protocols, and electrical & optical interfaces. Nearly all Macintosh class computers come with an SCSI port that allows [...]
RAID Recovery - NTFS Introduction and Overview
NTFS is the standard and high performance file system of Windows NT including Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2008, Window Vista, Windows 2000 and Windows 7. It offers file level security, compression as well as auditing and provides powerful storage solutions such as RAID. The most significant [...]
RAID Recovery - Features of NTFS V3.0
NTFS has numerous new features which have surpassed its predecessors; they are disk usage quotas, sparse file support, distributed link tracking, reparse points, and file-level encryption, which can also be considered as the Encrypting File System (EFS) etc. some of them are discussed below.
Alternate data streams (ADS)
Alternate data streams [...]
RAID Recovery - Fibre Channels
Fibre channel is a set of standards for connecting storage devices in a fibre network or advanced -speed network technology that are used to build storage networks. It is standardized in the T11 Technical Committee recognized by standard following committees like the
InterNational Committee for Information Technology Standards (INCITS) and the American [...]
RAID Recovery - mdadm
MDADM, derived from MD (multiple disk), is a program or Linux utility that is used to create, manage, delete and monitor software RAID devices. It is a free software that is available under GNU general public license.
MDADM provides the same functionality like RAID tools. Although, they have some key differences like:
MDADM can [...]

RAID Recovery - Hamming Code
Hamming code is a code that has its uses in telecommunication, mathematics and computer memory or RAM. Named after its inventor Richard Hamming, in telecommunications, Hamming code is a linear error correcting code that can detect up to two simultaneous bit errors and correct single bit errors. In mathematics Hamming codes [...]
RAID Recovery - Byte Level Parity
Parity is a concept that is used in the RAID systems along with striping. Striping on the other hand is used in the RAID systems to boost their performance level. Parity is basically an error correction technique and it is used in the RAID levels from 3 to 7. Parity [...]
RAID Recovery - Block Level Parity
Parity is used by all of the RAID levels from 3 to 7, with RAID 2 using a technology that is though similar to parity, but not exactly the same. Parity is an error correction technique that reconstructs the data of a failed drive in an array. All the binary [...]
