What is RAID?

RAID (Redundant Array of Independent Disks) uses multiple disks to allow faster performance, or the ability of some drives to stop working without loss of data.

Common RAID Configurations:

RAID 0: Provides high performance with no redundancy. The failure of any single disk leads to complete data loss.
RAID 1: Mirrors data across disks, offering redundancy. Recovery typically involves replacing the failed disk and rebuilding the array.
RAID 5: Balances performance and redundancy with distributed parity. Recovery can be complex, particularly with multiple disk failures.
RAID 6: Similar to RAID 5 but allows for two disk failures with an additional parity block.
RAID 10: Combines RAID 0 and RAID 1 benefits, offering both high performance and redundancy.

Common RAID Failures and Recovery Scenarios

RAID arrays can fail for many different reasons, from hardware malfunctions to software corruption. Common issues we recover are:

Disk Failures: Whether due to mechanical issues or bad sectors, we can rebuild and recover data from failed disks.
Controller Failures: We recover data from arrays affected by RAID controller failures or corruption.
RAID Rebuild Failures: Failed rebuilds can lead to data loss; our experts can safely recover data without risking additional loss.

What sets us apart:

Understanding RAID Configurations
RAID systems come in different configurations such as RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 5, RAID 6, and RAID 10, each with its unique structure and failure points. We've encountered all of these RAID setups and understand the nuances of each. This familiarity allows them to quickly diagnose issues and implement effective recovery strategies.
In-depth Analysis and Diagnosis
With years of hands-on experience, our technicians can accurately diagnose the root cause of a RAID failure, whether it's due to mechanical failure, logical corruption, or a combination of both. This contrasts with less experienced technicians who might misdiagnose the problem, leading to ineffective recovery attempts.
Handling Complex Failures
As often seen on forum discussions, RAID failures can involve multiple disk failures or corruption during rebuilds. Our technicians know how to navigate these challenges, employing advanced techniques to recover data even when it seems like it's impossible.

Advanced Technology: AceLAB PC3000

State-of-the-Art Tools
The AceLAB PC3000 is a cutting-edge toolset designed for data recovery professionals. It allows our technicians to interact directly with the firmware of hard drives, bypassing damaged areas and accessing data that would be otherwise unreachable with standard tools. Our technicians have read the book back and forth (literally) on these tools, including flying to Czech Republic regularly for intense training sessions with the experts at AceLAB.
Precision and Control
The PC3000 provides unparalleled control over the recovery process, enabling precise adjustments to handle drives with delicate conditions. This precision is important to avoid further data loss, which can occur if recovery attempts are made with tools that are not up to the job.
Comprehensive Recovery Capabilities
With the PC3000, our technicians can perform operations such as head swaps and platter extraction in a controlled environment, significantly increasing the chances of successful recovery from physically damaged drives.

Love From Our Customers

Hear from our satisfied customers who trust us for their data recovery needs in Austin. We didn't become the top rated repair shop on Google maps by accident - this was a 15 year effort of providing best-in-class service, with no gimmicks.

					I was getting an unmountable boot volume error that was just unrecoverable from. It's an old computer that had served me well. It had been SO consistent over the years I had gotten lazy with backups and was nowhere near current. I was given a quote after diagnosis for recovery of data place on a new external drive. I told them specifically what folders to aim for and as it turned out the were able to recover the entire root structure in the format I requested so I just need to copy my old document, video, picture and music files onto a new computer I purchased as a replacement once I got the bad news of its passing. What rocks is that I now have my files back. AND a new external hard drive to use as my backup and a reminder to never forget that lesson. (Can you say automatic back ups?) Thanks Kevin and crew. Oh... and they said it was easier than expected and reduced the quote to reflect the time they saved on the easier recovery. Lastly, they were kind, listened, timely for this kind if work which is very time intensive and had a very conscious "no contact" in and out process that is SO appreciated at this time. Thanks again!!!

					I had all of our pictures backed up twice, except for 2017 and 2018.  As I was uploading originals to the cloud, my drive died.  And there went 2 years, four daughters' middle school and high school memories, and my heart was broken.  Two separate repair shops looked at our drive....one of which likely also damaged it further....to no avail.  Rossman was recommended by our local guy after he said it was not something he could do.  Steve came through.  It took time, and patience, and I fully expected for him to give up, but he didn't.  He finally fixed it, did it at a price that was way too reasonable, and I now have our memories back.  I would unequivocally recommend Rossman.  They were honest, fair, and hardworking to the end.

					I traveled two and a half hours each way to take my laptop in to Rossmann Repair Group because I was so impressed with the skill and expertise displayed in Louis Rossmann's YouTube channel (in addition to its hilariousness and occasionally brilliant wit and wisdom). It was important to me to go to a repair store that I had trust and confidence in.Louis and his colleagues were extraordinarily diligent, professional, thorough, transparent and went far above and beyond what was necessary and greatly exceeded my expectations. This was literally the best customer service experience I can remember by far. I would recommend Rossmann Repair Group to anyone without reservations. Louis and his colleagues are also among the most uncompromisingly ethical professionals I've ever met - as another reviewer pointed out, they literally invest huge amounts of uncompensated time to educate customers on how systematically faulty MacBooks are despite having a business model reliant on people continuing to buy them.Seriously, if you care about your computer, time, money, data, etc., I wouldn't risk going anywhere else for MacBook repair.

					After years of watching Louis' YouTube vids I had to contact them for a damaged USB drive. I know they work on Apple products 99% of the time. This thumb drive had important documents that could not be reproduced, so I sent it in and they quoted me three times under what My big city wanted. Not to negate the time and work that goes into working on something so small. They are absolute professionals and I will be sending more damaged items in the future. From the time sent to return was exactly 15 days. Absolute life savers.

					Place was great! I went in with a clearly injured Mac Book and they told me point blank it wasnt worth fixing, the Mac was opened and diagnosed properly.  I recieved my Mac more in tact than when I took itin.  10 minutes was how long I waited to get my answer.  I also wasn't charged a diagnosis fee.   This was my 2nd opinion. The first place said i need to pay $130 just for them to look at it.  Well worth my 30 minute drive into Manhattan.  Thanks!!!

					My (2018) Macbook pro's touchbar was not working, it would show the display but couldn't register touches. I initially contacted Apple and they quoted me $700 for the repair. I brought it to Rossmann on a Saturday and the guy at the front desk opened it up and tried cleaning the touchbar cable for me and said if that fixed the problem, it would be free. It did not fix the problem and they gave me a quote of $300 and said it would take until around Wednesday. I had to leave town on Tuesday and they said they would be able to ship it to me once it was repaired. On Tuesday morning, I got an email saying the repair was complete and I was able to pick it up before I left. It has been around 3 weeks since and I've had no problems with the touchbar. Highly recommend! They saved me $400 and the employees were super friendly

					They were very responsive, and very flexible. They put a new motherboard in my computer and then learned that the screen was still bad. So they didn't charge me and sent me my hard drive too. I was really impressed

					Louis Rossmann is as real as it gets man. The sheep may not be of your average sheep's color, but he's the real deal. He knows exactly what he is doing and he's the full sheep. Not half the sheep, but the full legit sheep. You can't go wrong with Louis Rossmann. Don't delay, ship your Mackbook to Rossmann Repair Group today. Get your data recovery needs, your PP3SHEEP HOT repaired, liquid damaged keyboards (including those beautiful butterfly....wait a second... I wouldn't classify those as keyboards...) screens, and all sorts of... fuses....missing a screw? Perhaps a short screw for those short holes? Rossmann Repair Group has everything you need. But seriously, this place will fix all your sheep related needs!

					I sent in an external hard drive that bricked on me. Its a drive I plug in once a year, dump phone videos, photos, and then back on the shelf til next year. This year I went to free up some space and found the drive wouldn't respond. It had the first 10 years of my daughter growing up and I was freaking out. I had almost accepted they were gone until a friend at work mentioned RRG. I crossed my fingers and sent in the drive, not expecting good news (or some astronomical fee that would force me to put a price on those memories). Instead I got a call a few days after mailing saying not only could they repair the drive, but for a fraction of the cost I was expecting. 10/10 would recommend to anyone needing any services they provide.

					I teach at a gifted school and am dependent on a sturdy 7-year-old MacBook Pro purchased with a parents association grant. I use it for lecture, lessons, student presentations and all of my grading and internet at school. I had dropped the computer and it would not charge afterward. I called apple and they abandoned me. Their authorized repair people referred me to Louis before they abandoned me too. I showed up late on a Tuesday at his store frantic and worn out because this is my busiest time of the academic year. Frightened I would have to leave the computer there, Louis overheard me explaining I didn’t want the hard drive accidentally wiped and proceeded to start to analyze the problem. Then he gingerly opened up my tired computer and hooked power up from the inside, determined it was fixable and had some jolly guy in the back room hammer out the case for me while I waited. Then he put it all back together better than Humpty Dumpty and sent me on my way. I kept asking to pay him and he kept saying I could leave a tip if I wanted. I left a modest tip and thanked him and his really nice staff a few more times. I have never met anyone like this man. Yes Louis Rossmann is a true genius, unlike the misnomer coveted by apple technicians who are demeaning and often ineffective. Louis is talented, patient, and kind. And he’s a good teacher too.  He treated my computer like it was a person and he treated me with dignity for wanting to rescue it. I hope he does well in his business. He seems happy but it bothers me that he says people are not quick to thank him. I wish more people knew the joys of being in the presence of his greatness and leaving so relieved you have your computer back that the rainstorm outside that night doesn’t annoy you. Thank you Louis, and I wish you deep happiness in your life. Keep up the greatness. If you ever need anything let me know.

					Hard drive came back perfectly. I think it took a bit long for Rossman group to get the motherboard, but that may be partially my fault due to buying a board and then realizing it was incompatible. Everything was excellent, only complaint was that I had to scratch off a sticker, but it's literally nothing to worry about. Still kinda wondering if the store is an advertisement for the youtube channel or if the youtube channel is an advertisement for the store. Either way 5/5

					Polite, frank and to the point. Was hoping that if anyone could fix my Galaxy Book 2, it would be them but due to a lack of parts and right to repair laws there's simply no way and I'm left with an expensive paperweight. They did offer data recovery which is a good option if you absolutely must need your files back.

					These guys saved my life. Nowhere else in NYC would even attempt to repair my water-damaged laptop while trying to preserve the invaluable data on it. Rossman executed flawlessly, and even charged me $250 LESS than the original estimate. I won't even consider taking my computer anywhere else from now on, and you shouldn't either. Ultimate no brainer.
