SAN System Data Recovery
SAN systems are specialised, high-speed networks for accessing block-level data storage. They handle large data volumes with great availability, performance, and scalability—perfect for large organisations. By linking multiple servers to a central storage pool, SAN systems boost efficiency and support critical applications needing fast, reliable data access. Using Fibre Channel or iSCSI protocols, these systems offer advanced features like data deduplication, replication, and snapshots for strong data protection and recovery.
SAN systems, like any device, can fail in different ways, such as hardware malfunctions, software errors, and network issues. These failures can make data inaccessible or, in the worst case, cause data loss.
Trying to recover data on your own or using the wrong software might seem cost-effective, but it often doesn’t work and can make things worse. In these cases, it’s best to seek professional help. Data recovery experts have the skills, tools, and experience to handle complex SAN system failures.
Are you facing hardware malfunctions, software corruption, or accidental deletions? We are adept at working with SAN systems from many reputable manufacturers, including, but not limited to, Dell EMC, HP, IBM, and Hitachi. Our data recovery services cover the entire UK, whether you’re in Birmingham, London, Glasgow, or 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.
Understanding these common causes can help develop appropriate data protection and recovery strategies. Regardless of the cause, PITS Global Data Recovery Services is prepared to assist in swiftly and securely retrieving your valuable data.

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.
