Suitable for different computer environments
Suitable for different computer environments Suitable for different computer environments

With Recovery Explorer RAID, it is possible to get the missing data back from personal computers, external hard disks, memory cards, thumb drives, RAID sets and other storages with various file systems of Windows (FAT/FAT32/exFAT and NTFS), macOS (HFS+, APFS) and Linux (Ext2/Ext3/Ext4, ReiserFS, XFS, JFS, IBM JFS2, UFS/UFS2). Moreover, the software provides direct access to the undamaged content of volumes, helping to solve the problem of incompatibility between the storage format and the OS.

The program can handle a wide range of RAID configurations, among which are standard levels (RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 1E, RAID 3, RAID 5, RAID 6, etc.), combined patterns (RAID 10, RAID 50, RAID 60, RAID 50E, etc.), specific technologies (Btrfs-RAID, Synology SHR) and custom RAID layouts. The software detects RAID metadata on the drives and is capable of interpreting it for the automatic assembly of an intact array.

Recovery Explorer RAID offers multiple scanning options, including a quick scan for specified file system types, a longer in-depth search for lost data by known content with an option to load custom IntelliRAW rules, scanning of the space occupied by a particular file system or just the “free space” regions. It is possible to pause the operation at any moment, check the intermediate results or save them for later references.
