When hurricane
Floyd flooded the East Coast in 1999, it left a wake of destruction
that found some data centers in danger of continuing operations.
For some businesses, Data Link was able to help restore normal business
operations and recover data from flooded cartridges.
However, damaged media isn't always from a natural
disaster. A sprinkler system gone awry can wreak havoc on archive
tapes left in storage. And smoke damage from even a small fire can
contaminate tapes with carbon particles.
Data Link considers
a data recovery project successful when at least 95% of the data
is recovered and the duplicate copy matches the original's volume
header, block count, file marks, and capacity. However, the ultimate
measure of success is when the customer is able to read the recovered
data on their own system.
Immediate Diagnostic Evaluation
When you send in media for recovery services, Data Link will first
perform a diagnostic evaluation in our lab. Typically within 24
hours, Data Link engineers will provide you with a report outlining
the measures required to recover your data. If Data Link can't recover
the data, the media is returned to you and there is no charge except
for the initial evaluation.
Below is a list of disaster recovery services:
 Data & Disaster Recovery
Should disaster
strike, Data Link can help by recovering damaged data and restoring
normal operations. Data Link recovers data from storage media that
has been corrupted due to hardware or software failure, natural
disasters, or human error.
