As with all highly skilled professionals services, like doctors, dentists, CPA’s etc, the level of professionalism is achieved combining extensive higher education, years of training in the field, specialized industry specific tools and facilities.
Cherry Systems Inc. is an example of a P.D.R (Professional Data Recovery) provider. Our recovery process is based on the 3D Data Recovery worldwide standard. As such some of our specialized software and tools are designed and marketed by DeepSpar a company who adopted and adhere to that same standard. On their web-site DeepSpar refers to the 3D standard as;
Phase 1: Drive restoration
Phase 2: Disk imaging
Phase 3: Data retrieval
For more information please go to http://www.deepspar.com/pdr-system.html and read the section “Know your terrain”
A P.D.R engineer knows the terrain;
The first D starts with properly diagnosing the media to determine the most efficient process to recover the data. There are two primary outcomes;
1. Drive performs electro mechanically well.
2. Drive has failed or failing.
A. If drive is failing it must be restored to working condition, which should allow the engineer enough time to make an image.
The second D is for obtaining a good image of the failing drive as QUICKLY as possible, since you never sure how long is the failing drive will cooperate. A tool like DDI, developed by DeepSpar as well as other similar tools by other vendors, were developed to facilitate and automate storage media specific code to optimize the cloning processes. Do not confuse a tool like DDI with a tool like Ghost by Norton. While they seem to do the same at a first glance, Ghost should only is be used if the drive is performing well.
<*>Warning, a P.D.R tool like the DDI typically does a great job imaging a failing drive but it is no substitute for the skill and knowledge of the P.D.R engineer to monitor, manage, and tweak the process to a successful completion.
The third D is the the one in which the file system is rebuilt utilizing the clone drive (see the 2nd D) and recovered files extracted to a safe repository site, for delivery to an anxious customer.
When evaluating potential providers, you should ask if they are following the 3D standard. A provider that does not utilize proven specialized tools or bypasses the 3D standard, should not be considered a P.D.R provider. If your data is valuable, don’t take chances – choose a professional.

I thought this was a very interesting read. I didnt go along with every thing, but there was things in here I may not have thought about. By the way, there are some great public domain articles on the topic if you can seek them out.
Oh, lovely, I’d been searching for that all night. Thank you for taking time to write down this . I am going to follow you with Flickr. Keep posting.
My brother suggested I might like this blog. He was entirely right. This submit actually made my day. You can not imagine just how much time I had spent for this info! Thank you!
I dugg some with you post as I thought these were very helpful very useful when I observed this webpage I went on reddit to share a number of the love with them.
Such a nice article on data recovery. The 3D concept you have used really great….the safety of professional data is very important because any loss in piece of data can leads the organization in big problem. So, a good recovery plan or a software can solve the problem of data loss. The organization in which I am working using Stellar Windows Data Recovery Software for the data recovery.
I lately came across your blog and have been learning along. I thought I would leave my first comment. I do not know what to say except that I have loved reading. Fine blog. I will maintain visiting this blog incredibly often.
haha one or two of the reviews most people distribute are so silly, commonly i ask myself whether they in fact read the subject matter and items before leaving your 2 cents or whether or not they basically read the subject of the blog post and write the very first idea that one thinks of. regardless, it is really relaxing to read through clever commentary from time to time in contrast to the identical, classic blog vomit that i invariably discover on the internet
A wonderful piece of reading material! I am impressed. If you are having problems finding any info to write about anything else. I would recommend this website. It helped me tremendously!
