Synology RAID called unrecoverable? Behind the sce Synology RAID called unrecoverable? Behind the scenes in our Sydney data recovery lab.A real case: a Synology DS918+ with Synology Hybrid RAID and BTRFS, sent from New Zealand after another company gave up on it.How our data recovery engineers approached it:1. Tested all four drives. One was password locked and set aside.2. Found one healthy drive with a wiped partition table.3. Confirmed all three were about 90% full of unique data.4. UFS Explorer and R-Studio could not detect the array.5. Tested every disc order and stripe size by hand until it rebuilt.About 12TB of data back.Full video and case study: link in bio.If you have a Synology NAS like this, or know someone who does, email help@payam.com.au or call 1300 444 800.Based in Australia, international customers welcome!#NASRecovery #Synology #RAIDRecovery #DataRecoveryAustralia
LaCie 2big not showing up on your Mac? Behind the LaCie 2big not showing up on your Mac? Behind the scenes in our Sydney data recovery lab.A real case: a LaCie 2big 20TB that a Mac could no longer see. New cables and a new power supply did not help.How our data recovery engineers approached it:1. Opened the enclosure and removed the two Seagate 10TB drives.2. Connected both to a drive dock.3. Both mounted as Time Machine volumes with identical data. It was RAID 1, not RAID 0.4. Formatted a new 10TB drive the way Time Machine expects.5. Copied everything across with Carbon Copy Cloner.Full data set back in 2 days.Full video and case study: link in bio.If you have a LaCie 2big like this, or know someone who does, email help@payam.com.au or call 1300 444 800.Based in Australia, international customers welcome!#LaCie #MacRecovery #TimeMachine #DataRecoverySydney
QNAP says the RAID is healthy, but the volume will QNAP says the RAID is healthy, but the volume will not mount? Behind the scenes in our Sydney data recovery lab.A real case: a 4-bay QNAP with a RAID 6 of four Seagate Barracuda 8TB drives. After a few restarts it stopped booting.How our data recovery engineers approached it:1. Tested all four drives. One had odd SMART readings with no warning.2. WinHex could not open that drive.3. UFS Explorer stalled on the array.4. Cloned the suspect drive on the DeepSpar to 100 percent.5. Rebuilt the RAID with the clone. Files opened perfectly.All data back in 24 hours.Full video and case study: link in bio.If you have a QNAP NAS like this, or know someone who does, email help@payam.com.au or call 1300 444 800.Based in Australia, international customers welcome!#NASRecovery #QNAP #RAIDRecovery #DataRecoverySydney
Two failed drives in a RAID 5? Behind the scenes i Two failed drives in a RAID 5? Behind the scenes in our data recovery lab.A real case: a four drive Seagate IronWolf 4TB array at a Tasmanian architecture firm, full of drawings and 3D point cloud scans.How our data recovery engineers approached it:1. Tested all four drives. Two had failed.2. Head swap on the safer of the two, in a laminar flow cabinet.3. Cloned it to 99 percent on the DeepSpar.4. Auto-detection failed, so the RAID was rebuilt by hand in UFS Explorer.5. Large PDFs opened cleanly to prove it.Every file back. Nothing missing.Full video and case study: link in bio.If you have a RAID like this, or know someone who does, email help@payam.com.au or call 1300 444 800.Based in Australia, international customers welcome!#RAIDRecovery #ServerRecovery #Seagate #DataRecoveryAustralia

Behind the scenes in our data recovery lab.A real case: a Dynabook Boost X20 1TB full of a music producer's Logic Pro sessions.How our data recovery engineer approached it:1. Opened the case and took out the SSD board.2. PC-3000 Portable SSD Pro: the flash was healthy, the firmware was not.3. Uploaded a working loader.4. Rebuilt the translator from the service area metadata.5. Imaged the drive, then checked the projects opened.90 GB and over 12,000 files back, every Logic Pro session included.Full video and case study: link in bio.If you have a portable SSD like this, or know someone who does, email help@payam.com.au or call 1300 444 800.Based in Australia, international customers welcome!#SSDRecovery #PortableSSD #LogicPro #DataRecoveryAustralia
Office RAID 0 stopped working? Behind the scenes i Office RAID 0 stopped working? Behind the scenes in our data recovery lab.A real case: two WD 3TB drives striped into one 5.6TB volume. The backup was over five years old, and an earlier attempt elsewhere returned empty folders and corrupted files.How our data recovery engineer approached it:1. Reading slowed down two hours in, so he stopped.2. Health check: one drive was failing, about 20% below normal speed.3. Full hardware clones of both drives on the DeepSpar, 100% imaged.4. RAID 0 rebuilt and recovered from the clones.Over 3TB back in about 24 hours.Full video and case study: link in bio.If you have a RAID like this, or know someone who does, email help@payam.com.au or call 1300 444 800.Based in Australia, international customers welcome!#RAIDRecovery #ServerRecovery #WesternDigital #DataRecoverySydney
Spilled water on your MacBook and it won't turn on Spilled water on your MacBook and it won't turn on? Behind the scenes in our data recovery lab.A real case: a MacBook Pro A2338. The fan ran nonstop, then nothing.How our data recovery engineer approached it:1. Opened it up: corrosion around the Wi-Fi chip area.2. Removed a corroded capacitor. Still a short.3. Injected voltage and used a thermal camera to find the hot spot.4. Scraped the corroded copper away by hand. Short gone.5. Board powered up, storage cloned to an external drive.Photos, videos and documents all back.Full video and case study: link in bio.If you have a MacBook like this, or know someone who does, email help@payam.com.au or call 1300 444 800.Based in Australia, international customers welcome!#MacBookRecovery #LiquidDamage #MacBookPro #DataRecoverySydney
SD card asking to be formatted? Behind the scenes SD card asking to be formatted? Behind the scenes in our data recovery lab.A real case: a SanDisk 32GB SD card of car racing footage. An earlier attempt elsewhere left videos that would not play.How our data recovery engineer approached it:1. Cloned the card sector by sector on the Atola. It imaged cleanly to 100%, so the damage was logical.2. Several recovery programs saved clips that still would not play.3. Disk Drill, a tool he rarely needs, got every clip playing.4. An AI assistant read each video's metadata to restore the original names and dates.All 21 clips, 22GB, playable in about three hours.Full video and case study: link in bio.If you have a memory card like this, or know someone who does, email help@payam.com.au or call 1300 444 800.Based in Australia, international customers welcome!#SDCardRecovery #MemoryCardRecovery #SanDisk #DataRecoverySydney
Dropped hard drive stopped working? Behind the sce Dropped hard drive stopped working? Behind the scenes in our data recovery lab.A real case: a 2.5 inch Seagate external drive pulled off a desk onto a tile floor.How our data recovery engineer approached it:1. Diagnostics: one of the two read/write heads had failed from the impact.2. On the PC-3000, the one good head copied everything it could reach first.3. In the laminar flow cabinet, the failed head was replaced with a matched donor head.4. Both heads working, retries focused on the problem areas.Every file came back, including all the photos, copied to a new external drive.Full video and case study: link in bio.If you have a hard drive like this, or know someone who does, email help@payam.com.au or call 1300 444 800.Based in Australia, international customers welcome!#DroppedHardDrive #HardDriveRecovery #Seagate #DataRecoverySydney
NAS showing only a few files? Behind the scenes in NAS showing only a few files? Behind the scenes in our data recovery lab.A real case: a WD My Cloud RAID 5 from Papua New Guinea. Around 20TB, and suddenly only a handful of files were visible.How our data recovery engineer approached it:1. No hardware faults, so a file system problem.2. WinHex showed a RAID 5 pattern, and a missing fourth drive was sent in.3. WD My Cloud keeps real file names in a separate index, so he browsed the volume by hand.Around 18TB found in two shared network folders and saved to a new 26TB drive.Full video and case study: link in bio.If you have a NAS like this, or know someone who does, email help@payam.com.au or call 1300 444 800.Based in Australia, international customers welcome!#NASRecovery #RAIDRecovery #DataRecovery #DataRecoveryAustralia

Behind the scenes in our data recovery lab.A real case: a WD My Passport 4TB Time Machine backup from Western Australia, missing the customer's journals and video journals.How our data recovery engineer approached it:1. UFS Explorer showed interrupted backups that never finished cleanly.2. A deep scan with Data Rescue for Mac saved everything recoverable to a 10TB drive.3. Claude Cowork, with strict privacy controls on, located the journals almost instantly.Around 60GB of journals and video journals saved to a new 2TB drive.Full video and case study: link in bio.If you have a Time Machine drive like this, or know someone who does, email help@payam.com.au or call 1300 444 800.Based in Australia, international customers welcome!#TimeMachine #MacDataRecovery #DataRecovery #DataRecoveryAustralia
