SAN System Data Recovery
SAN systems are high-speed networks designed for block-level data storage, offering exceptional performance, scalability, and reliability—ideal for large organisations. By connecting multiple servers to central storage, they ensure fast, dependable data access. Using Fibre Channel or iSCSI, SANs provide advanced features like deduplication, replication, and snapshots for strong data protection and recovery.
Facing hardware malfunctions, software corruption, or accidental deletions? We specialise in SAN systems from top manufacturers like Dell EMC, HP, IBM, and Hitachi. Our data recovery services span the entire UK, covering cities such as Birmingham, London, Glasgow, and Edinburgh.
Common Causes of Data Loss in SAN Systems
- Hardware or System Failure: This could be due to wear and tear over time, manufacturer defects, or sudden damage such as power outages or surges.
- Human Error: This can range from accidentally deleting files to incorrect configurations to mishandling devices.
- Firmware or Software Corruption: This can also include issues with the operating system or file system managing the data storage. Firmware corruption or incompatibility can cause data corruption.
- Malware or Virus Attacks: Malicious software can infiltrate systems, corrupt data, or even delete it entirely.
- Natural Disasters: Unexpected events such as fires, floods, earthquakes, or other disasters can physically compromise the storage devices and lead to data loss.

Recovering Data from a Failed SAN Drive
We offer multiple options for sending your device to our recovery centres for fast and efficient service.
Simply pack your storage media securely with the provided shipping label and send it to our lab. If you’re unable to visit a post office, we can arrange collection. Alternatively, drop off the device at one of our local offices or designated points.
Once we receive your device, we notify you immediately and begin a technical inspection to assess the data loss and its complexity.
We provide various risk-free assessment options, ensuring your media is handled with the utmost care at PITS Global Data Recovery Services.
After completing the evaluation, we contact the customer with details about the device’s failure, recovery chances, and service options.
The customer can then choose to proceed or cancel the recovery. If cancelled, we ensure the safe return of the device.
After recovery, we schedule a remote session for the client to verify the recovered files. Upon successful verification, the data can be delivered via a secure cloud link or on a new external hard drive.
Once the client confirms receipt, we immediately delete all stored data from our servers, ensuring maximum security and privacy.
- Customer Assurance: Review recovered data remotely for peace of mind.
- Transparency: Confirm all critical files are successfully restored.
- Convenience: Avoid the need for in-person visits or delays.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does SAN stand for in data storage?
SAN stands for Storage Area Network. It is a high-speed network that connects storage devices to servers, providing access to data storage and retrieval at the block level. This allows numerous servers to access the same storage, making it ideal for enterprise-level applications with intensive data needs.
What is the advantage of SAN?
SAN offers several advantages, including scalability, high performance, and increased reliability. With SAN, organisations can easily add more storage capacity without disrupting operations. Additionally, it enables quicker data transfer and enhances data security by implementing redundancy and fault tolerance measures.
What is the disadvantage of SAN?
Implementing and maintaining a SAN system can be costly, posing a significant disadvantage. Moreover, effective setup and management of SANs may necessitate specialised IT expertise. Another drawback is the intricate troubleshooting process in case of system failures, potentially resulting in prolonged business downtime.
How does SAN storage work?
SAN storage connects multiple servers to a centralised device through a high-speed network. Data is stored and managed within the SAN, allowing faster access and more efficient management. This will enable organisations to store and access large amounts of data securely and scalable. Additionally, SANs often utilise advanced technologies such as RAID to provide redundancy and data protection in case of hardware failures. SAN storage offers a reliable, high-performance data storage and management solution.
What is the difference between SAN and RAID storage?
SAN and RAID are two distinct storage technologies with different functions. A SAN, or Storage Area Network, is a network that grants access to centralised, block-level data storage. Conversely, RAID, or Redundant Array of Independent Disks, combines several physical disk drive components into a unified logical unit to enhance data redundancy, performance, or both. By incorporating RAID into a SAN system, you can improve data protection with an additional layer of security.
