ReclaiMe Free RAID Recovery
ReclaiMe Free RAID Recovery is a free Windows utility for identifying RAID configuration parameters from physical disks, USB-connected disks, disk-image files, hardware RAID sets, software RAID sets, and NAS disk sets. It supports RAID 0, RAID 5, RAID 10, RAID 6, RAID5E, and RAID 5 with delayed parity. The tool determines details such as disk order, block size, and start offset. After analysis, users can create an array copy, save the parameters, or use compatible recovery software to access the data. Transfer instructions are provided for R-Studio, File Scavenger, UFS Explorer, and Zero Assumption Recovery. Named NAS examples include QNAP, NETGEAR, Synology, and Buffalo. It can create and open disk images. The software does not recover files individually and requires a multi-disk RAID array. Each member disk, including missing members in specified RAID levels, must contain 10–20 GB for analysis. RAID 0 requires every member disk; RAID 5 can be analyzed with one missing member, while RAID 6 cannot be analyzed with two missing members.
