NVMe is the latest and greatest form of flash storage that businesses and consumers are using to store and access data. NVMe-based flash storage is the new protocol, expected to replace SAS and SATA protocols that had themselves replaced the spinning disks found in hard drives.
SAS and SATA are not able to fully take advantage of the benefits of flash storage. NVMe, or non-volatile memory express, was developed so solid state drives could achieve an even higher level of performance.
While NVMe storage is superior to hard drives, there is no standard in SSD production. If your SSD technology has failed, you need to find a data recovery service that has special experience dealing with flash memory.
Unlike hard drives, where a data recovery specialist could apply the lessons they learned from one device to another, extracting data from a SSD is a unique, highly intricate process that requires significant expertise.
Unique Challenges that Occur with NVMe Data Recovery:
Data recovery techniques are more demanding when you try to secure data from NVMe storage:
- NVMe storage may fail is if a PCIe lane has a fault. If there is an electronic problem on one lane, it can be circumvented by using another lane for communication. Therefore, a specialist must be competent enough to limit the number of PCIe lanes being used.
- Another way to communicate to a failed NVMe storage device might be limiting the PCIe link speed, which requires specialized tools and experience.
These are significant challenges unique to NVMe storage that most data recovery specialists just cannot face.
Reasons Why You Might Need NVMe Data Recovery
While SSDs are more dependable than storage devices with moving components, they are not infallible. PCIe SSDs might fail due to:
- Malware, viruses or other programs that can delete data
- Physical damage to disk drives can still occur. Although it is harder to physically damage an SSD, it is possible, and the recovery process is more difficult.
- Inaccessible partitions may exist on solid state drives, making it impossible to access the data on your storage device.
- Logical errors occur – these are often human errors, like deleting a critical file or folder that you may need.
- Operating system failure may lead to corruption of a solid state drive.
- Bad blocks may be present on SSDs, even though they are more dependable than hard drives.
- Accidental reformatting can also occur on NVMe storage. Sadly, when this happens, the success rate of data recovery takes a dip because this type of storage is so unique.
Most data recovery companies are not equipped to achieve stable communication with NVMe storage when it has failed.
If Your NVMe Device Has Failed
If your NVMe storage device is losing data, ensure that it is turned off. SSDs can overwrite files during operation, reducing the chances of data recovery. SSDs can also suffer from physical damage or memory issues. By keeping your drive powered off, you’ll keep your storage media in its original condition.
Why You Need a Competent NVMe Data Recovery Company
If you need to recover deleted files, you need to call upon data recovery engineers with specific NVMe data recovery experience.
SSD Data Recovery Requires Expertise
Solid state drive recovery is an intricate process due to unique features and TRIM technology. When a file is deleted, TRIM technology will ensure that it is completely removed from the SSD.
If you have lost files because of corruption, error or another reason, you’ll need to work with an SSD recovery service that can work with TRIM technology to recover deleted files.
NVMe Data Recovery is Even More Complex
NVMe storage adds an extra level of complexity to SSD data recovery. Every manufacturer has its own critical components in different places.
And while both hard drives and SSDs can have bad sectors leading to data loss, SSDs only need a small percentage to make the drive inaccessible.
We Take NVMe Data Recovery Seriously
Because you probably didn’t expect your SSD to fail, you were likely caught off guard. This means that when the data on your NVMe storage is inaccessible, time is of the essence.
We understand how critical information is to a business and can accomodate your needs with turnaround time in many situations.
We believe in getting right down to business which is why when you contact us, you will be communicating with a data recovery technician, not a member of the sales team or customer service.
After we assess your situation and offer you expert advice, you can send your NVMe storage device in for an evaluation. We can figure out if recovering your files are possible. If this is a possibility, we will offer you with a quote and a timeline you can depend on.
Why You Should Choose Us
Technology is our passion, so we regularly invest in its research and development. This has lead to numerous years of experience dealing with NAND flash memory, and we can secure data from many NVMe storage devices, something other data recovery companies just can’t do.
After years of recovering data from happy customers, we realize the urgency of each data recovery case we take on. We know you want your files back and your system up and running as soon as possible.
Every member of our team wants you to succeed, which might be why we have one of the highest data recovery success rates in the country.
We understand that each situation, device, and data type is unique and we will offer a custom solution for you, rather than a one-size-fits-all approach that may contribute to a lower recovery rate.
Finally, we realize that this expenses of this type of data recovery can become overwhelming. We are dedicated to fair pricing and if we don’t recover your data successfully, you won’t have to pay.
We encourage you to call us today to speak with an expert. Your business is in good hands with DataLab.
