Recovering data from a failed RAID 5 array can be complex and requires careful handling to avoid further data loss. RAID 5 uses striping with parity, meaning data is distributed across all drives with one drive storing parity data for redundancy. If one drive fails, the array can still function. However, if multiple drives fail […]
Recovering accidentally deleted files on an ext4 file system can be challenging because ext4 does not natively provide an undelete feature. When a file is deleted, its metadata is removed, making recovery difficult. However, there are methods and tools you can try depending on the situation. Here’s a step-by-step approach: Immediate Actions After Deletion Stop […]
