A competent company with passionate experts who bend backwards to help people. I had a terrible experience with Fields Data Recovery who were misleading, negligent and took a substantial amount of money from me (that I'm still trying to get back) despite knowing that my MacBook hard drive was unsalvageable. I got a second opinion and came across Andy from R3 Data Recovery who were enlightened me on how many people Fields Data Recovery to this to. They take your money and make no effort to do any work or make any contact with you. Andy at R3 Data Recovery conducted a review of Fields R&D Technical report issued by Fields Head of R&D and the communications with Fields Data Recovery Head of European Sales. Andy has confirmed with me that there has either been a very serious mistake in the ISO 9001 / 27001 processing of your case by Fields Associates or a deliberate and designed deception to take money under false pretence. Again, this has happened to a lot of people. Andy is assisting with the refund and has been in communication with the Directors of Fields Associates and the local MP for Bridgend Dr Jamie Wallis who is the owner of Fields and one of the past experts in Fields Data Recovery still showing on the website. Disclaimer: I have not been asked to leave this review. R3 Data Recovery have been so helpful in trying to me after this ordeal. I would really recommend them.

Data loss on a 1 TB SSD drive Another alert to those using 1TB SSD in RAID 5.

Before running chkdisk / fdisk on VMs, Virtual Disks, hosts or used for O/S or RAID management on SSD without checking all data is already backed up and is up to date - your data is at risk.

Even then consider why SSD used in servers, NAS boxes and SAN are increasingly coming into R3 Data Recovery.

Most are less than 2 years old, others are in the 3-5 year range. Compare to enterprise SAS drives are in the 6-10years of use range.

Also if your O/S is using SSD but your HDD RAID are going offline that it might not be the HDD that are the underlying cause of failing HDD.

Check your UPS and do not assume the drive health reported can be relied on.

If you don't you might need this number ☎️ 0800 999 3282.
