UFS Explorer RAID Recovery

UFS Explorer RAID Recovery is an application specialized in data recovery from RAID systems. The software reconstructs complex RAID configurations, including standard, nested, and custom levels. The tool works with Windows, macOS, Linux, and BSD/Solaris file systems. The recovery process is performed in read-only mode to ensure the safety of the original data.

• Virtual RAID reconstruction. The software builds a virtual representation of the RAID from physical disks or disk images. This function analyzes component metadata and determines the array parameters. Virtual reconstruction allows data access without modifying the original storage configuration.
• Support for complex RAID levels. The application handles standard RAID configurations (0, 1, 5, 6, 10) and nested or hybrid levels. Includes support for RAID 5E, 5EE, 6E and custom combinations. Each RAID level requires a specific approach for data reconstruction.
• Damaged data recovery. The algorithm processes disks with bad sectors using parity (RAID 5, RAID 6) or data copies (RAID 1). The function creates maps of damaged sectors and generates disk images with simulated sectors to complete the reconstruction.
• File system analysis. The software identifies and analyzes NTFS, FAT, exFAT, HFS+, APFS, Ext2-4, XFS, JFS, Btrfs, ZFS, and ReiserFS file systems. The analysis engine extracts directory structure and file metadata even from corrupted systems.
• Storage technology support. The application works with MDADM, LVM, Windows Storage Spaces, Synology Hybrid RAID, Apple Fusion Drive, and Intel Matrix RAID. Each technology requires specific analysis and reconstruction methods.
• Disk image creation. The tool generates full or partial images of storage devices. The images preserve the current state of the media and allow working with copies instead of the originals. Supports common and proprietary image formats.
• RAID parameter editor. The interface allows manual modification of RAID array parameters: stripe size, disk order, parity rotation direction, and start delay. Manual adjustments facilitate recovery when automatic detection fails.
• Integrated hex view. The hex viewer displays the raw content of disk sectors and partitions. This function assists in the technical analysis of data structures and in verifying the integrity of recovered information.
• NAS recovery. Specialized software recovers data from RAID-based NAS devices. Supports QNAP, Synology, Western Digital, Netgear systems and other manufacturers. The application reconstructs the specific RAID configuration of each device.
• File signature recovery. The IntelliRAW method searches for files by their characteristic binary signatures when file system structures are damaged. Identifies document, image, video, and archive formats through content analysis.
• Search filters and sorting. The interface includes tools to filter results by file type, size, date, and attributes. Filters speed up locating specific files within large volumes of recovered data.
• File preview. The integrated viewer displays the content of recovered files before saving them. Supports document, image, video, and audio formats. The preview verifies the integrity of recovered files.

UFS Explorer RAID Recovery was developed by SysDev Laboratories, a company specialized in data recovery software. Development began in 2002 and the first version was released in 2003. The program is written in C++ with low-level components for direct hardware access. The development team focuses on storage technologies and file systems.
