WHAT ARE NAS, SAN OR DAS?

Storage systems

NAS, SAN or DAS systems

NAS, DAS, or SAN systems allow you to store information remotely and meet connectivity or data storage needs securely, thus avoiding data loss and avoiding the need for data recovery services. For personal use or a small business, NAS or DAS are storage systems that offer a balance between price, capacity, and security, both in terms of data protection and data recovery after a disk drive failure.

DAS system

A DAS (Direct Attached Storage) system, while it could be considered a hard drive as such, has in recent years evolved into devices made up of more than two hard drive units connected via USB or Thunderbolt cable to operate without any other type of connectivity. With various capacities, they can operate in different formats such as RAID 0, RAID 1, or RAID 5.

NAS system

A NAS (Network Attached Storage) system is a device that enables remote connection via Wi-Fi or RJ45, expanding the possibility of storing data remotely. Most of them operate in RAID 0, RAID 1, or RAID 5 format, although there are also units with just a single mechanical hard drive.

DAS vs NAS system

DAS (Direct Attached Storage) systems are more geared towards home users, as they usually do not require the remote connectivity that a NAS offers. Likewise, the price of a DAS is generally much more affordable than its NAS equivalent. It's important to understand that a NAS includes an operating system (mostly Linux) configured for remote connections and many other applications, mostly aimed at semi-professional use.
element

Operating systems

As mentioned, the internal operating systems of DAS and NAS are usually Linux, and their partitions are generally EXT 4 or XFS. These are secure and robust systems, but they become complex when it comes to recovering information if one of the hard drives is damaged. Even data deletion can be challenging due to the specific design of these operating systems. They are designed so that deleted information cannot be easily recovered.
element

SAN system

SAN systems (Storage Area Network) are intended for professional environments. The main difference lies in the use of connection cabling (fiber optics), the iSCSI connection protocol, and the hardware architecture that encompasses all the hard drives. They are typically enclosures with multiple drives, capable of running virtual machines simultaneously. The recovery of SAN devices, which often involve multiple LUNs and virtual machines, is usually very complex due to the use of VMWARE systems and virtualized environments.

Trust Laby, we can recover your NAS data.

Whether it's a NAS system, SYNOLOGY, WESTERN DIGITAL MYCLOUD, WESTERN DIGITAL DUO, QNAP, BUFALO, VMWARE, or systems with iSCSI protocols, we can help.

Recover data from a NAS, SAN, or DAS drive

PROBLEMS WITH A NAS, SAN, OR DAS?

NAS, SAN, or DAS devices can fail for a variety of reasons. A hard drive failure can render a NAS, DAS, or SAN inaccessible. Although they are often configured with RAID 5 redundant systems, other configurations can cause the system to crash. Other times, an internal operating system failure or a problem with surface degradation on one or more of the disks can result in data loss on a NAS, DAS, or SAN device.
Sometimes, the system may freeze, allow partial access to data, or simply display the list of files without granting access to them. Deleting information from a NAS, DAS, or SAN device and proceeding with its recovery is complex due to the file system used. To determine the failure and the extent of the issue, it is necessary to review the physical units that have failed for repair and image creation, determine the file system and its structure, and attempt data access. All these processes are complex due to the many possible combinations of both parameters and the logical format of the units (LUN).

TIPS TO AVOID LOSING DATA

A NAS, SAN or DAS device is a compact box consisting of several hard disks that are connected via a network cable to the system, hence the common name network hard disk.

If you have problems with the NAS, SAN or DAS system, it does not work or you cannot access the data, our recommendation is to disconnect it and contact a specialized data recovery service.

If you tamper with the broken device or try to recover the data with a program without success, you could complicate and make the process of recovering the information stored on the NAS, SAN or DAS more costly. Even to the point of making it unrecoverable.

To avoid further damage to the device:

Turn off the device as soon as possible. It will prevent further damage that may condition the recovery process.

Do not tamper with the device. Forcing screws, or opening it in an uncontrolled, dust-free environment can adversely affect the chances of recovery. Remember that the inner parts are very sensitive and delicate.

The use of recovery software in physical cases may permanently damage the device. Avoid using it in such cases.

Contact a data recovery laboratory. These are the professionals who have the tools and adequate training to be able to evaluate and carry out the data extraction and recovery processes.

How much does data recovery from a NAS, SAN, or DAS device cost?

DATA RECOVERY PRICES FOR NAS, SAN, OR DAS HARD DRIVES

The price for recovering data from hard drives in NAS, SAN, or DAS devices will always depend on the damage suffered by the drives, together with the working hours and technical equipment required to carry out the recovery processes.

In any case, a prior diagnosis is necessary to detect the type of failure or combination of several failures. Below we detail the most common failures and the reference prices:

element
From €250 / + vat

For logic or board faults:

  • Problems accessing damaged partitions, bad sectors or surface degradation / Burned electronic boards / damaged by short circuits, incorrect voltages or burned components.
From €350 / + vat

For Firmware failures:

  • Internal disk SW corrupted. Damaged modules.
From €450 / + iva

For engine breakdowns:

  • Over temperature or motor unit failure.
From €450 / + vat

For head failures:

  • Surface degradation or reader unit failure.

If it is a set of disks

From €450 / + vat

For logic or electronic board failures:

From €890 / + vat

For head failures:

Determining the price of data recovery of a NAS, SAN or DAS device is extremely complex. First of all, it is necessary to know whether the failure is physical or logical and how many disks make up the NAS, SAN or DAS.

Working with 4 disks is not the same as working with 16 disks at the same time and several of these disks are damaged. If it is physical, determine if the failure is of the cabinet itself or if the components (hard disks) have been damaged by use, degradation, defective, etc. In addition, it is necessary to know what type of RAID is used, since there are RAID 0, RAID 5 or RAID 6 among many others.

The complexity of the recovery is determined by imaging the damaged devices (performing the tasks in the lab and clean room) and reassembling the RAID parameters (block size, offsets, parity, etc.).

In many cases, the EXT 3 / 4 file system, XFS or VMFS (virtual systems) add an extra layer of difficulty. On VMFS systems, once the RAID is remounted, the VMFS container may also have to be remounted to display the contents of the virtual machines.

In a logical problem such as a virtual machine or Snapshot deletion, it is very important to stop the NAS, SAN or DAS to avoid overwriting information.

EXT 3 / 4 XFS or VMFS file systems are extremely complex to recover due to their design. They are extremely robust in terms of file corruption, but deleted data recovery processes are not always possible.

Likewise, it is important to note that if the set of disks are SSD the TRIM command can play a determining factor in the process of data non-recovery.

WHAT DEVICES CAN WE RECOVER AT LABY?

Data Recovery from Mechanical Hard

HDD disks have as main components the metal plates (disks), where the data is stored, and the heads that are responsible for accessing the information. The most common hard disk.

SSD Hard Drive Recovery

SSDs do not move, hence the name solid state. The information is stored in blocks and no headers are required to access it. It is much more efficient and faster than an HDD hard disk.

External Hard Disk Drive Recovery

External hard disks allow us to store outside the computer all the important information of which we want to make a backup copy. But one failure can cause us to lose all this data.

iPhone, iPad, iMac or MacBook

Apple devices, including iPhone, iPad, iMac, MacBook, Mac Mini, etc. They are reliable, elegant, powerful and easy to use.

Laptop Hard Drive Data Recovery

On the laptop hard disk we store important work or home information. If a failure occurs, it can cause us to lose all this valuable personal data.

Data Recovery NAS, SAN and

A SAN, NAS or DAS disk is a compact enclosure consisting of several hard disks that are connected via a network cable to the system, hence the common name network hard disk.

Data recovery from RAID systems

RAID disks are a redundant group of independent disks. They can be HDD disks or SSD disks and together they form a storage system to distribute or replicate data.

Recovery of USB Flash Drives

Pen drives or USB flash drives consist of one or more memory blocks. They work in many cases like SSD devices (same Flash technology).

Memory Card Recovery

Memory cards are used to store information from devices such as cameras, cell phones or tablets. They differ in their storage capacity and read/write speed.

Ransomware or Virus Recovery

We recover data encrypted with viruses or ransomware. Ransomware is extortive software: its purpose is to prevent you from using your device until you have paid a ransom. Depending on the type of ransomware, either the entire operating system or only some files are encrypted.

Mobile and Tablet Recovery

In mobile devices such as smartphones or tablets, recovery processes can be performed by analyzing the electronics of the damaged components or by performing the chip off process.
