No. Most database repair applications can only treat a limited set of failure scenarios, and if your media has physical read/write issues, running software of any kind could cause permanent damage.

If you cannot access a database, you should contact a professional data recovery company as soon as possible. Keep your device turned off to prevent media issues from complicating the recovery process.

Corruption occurs when a read/write process is interrupted, either due to a software malfunction or a hardware error. Most database applications have some built-in protection against common sources of corruption, but these protections are limited. Larger databases are generally more likely to encounter corruption.

Certain events can increase the likelihood of database issues. For example, power surges, blackouts and other electrical events can seriously endanger data, and many of our clients report database issues after new software installation. Back up important databases regularly in order to avoid data loss.

Do not attempt to repair your databases, especially if you notice signs of physical media issues. Turn off your storage device or isolate the affected partition.

We realize that database issues can lead to serious downtime, and we offer several turnaround options for the benefit of our clients. Secure Data Recovery Services is one of the only providers with a 24/7/365 emergency service, which carries an average turnaround of less than a day. We can also repair damaged RAID arrays and server hardware; contact our customer service team for more information.
