Steps to Follow After a Data Storage System Failure
If your institution loses access to important data, you should turn off the affected system. While this is not always feasible on large-scale web servers and storage appliances, disconnecting power will prevent additional hardware damage. When you cannot turn off your entire system, you should isolate the damaged partition logically to guard against accidental overwrites.
As soon as you see symptoms of a failure, contact a professional data services provider to discuss options. Available services will vary depending on the size, format, age and failure scenario of your system.
