RAID recovery intake that captures drive failure count up front
Ask about RAID type, how many drives have failed, and whether the array has been left untouched since the problem started, then collect drive bay photos and controller logs so you can scope the recovery with full context.
The exact intake your raid data recovery leads complete
This is the real 6-question guided intake for RAID Data Recovery — the same flow your customers finish before you ever pick up the phone.
What a qualified raid data recovery lead should tell you
Recovery of data from a multi-drive RAID array that has failed, degraded, or become inaccessible due to drive failure, controller fault, or corruption, where the intake needs to establish RAID type, failure state, and access status before an engagement is scoped.
- Raid Configuration Involved
- Many Drives In Array
- Array Been Left Untouched
- Have Administrative Or Physical
- Approximate Total Stored Capacity
- Data Most Important Recover
The questions your team needs answered
Every raid data recovery intake asks these — and why each one matters.
| Question | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| What type of RAID configuration is involved? | The RAID configuration type determines the recovery methodology and tools needed, so knowing it before the call shapes how you prepare. |
| How many drives in the array are currently failed or showing errors? | The number of failed or error-showing drives is the primary driver of recovery complexity and directly affects confidence in a successful outcome. |
| Has the array been left untouched since the problem started, with no rebuild or repair attempts? | Confirming no rebuild or repair attempt has been made tells you whether the original data is still likely intact, which is the single biggest factor in recovery odds. |
| Do you have administrative or physical access to the drives and hardware? | Without admin or physical access to the drives, no imaging or recovery work can start, making this a hard prerequisite rather than a soft preference. |
| What is the approximate total stored capacity of the array? | Stored capacity affects turnaround time, storage needed for imaging, and where the engagement lands on your pricing tiers. |
| Which type of data is most important to recover from this array? | Knowing which data type is the priority lets you assign the right specialist and toolset before the scoping call rather than discovering it live. |

Built for raid data recovery workflows
| Cliont capability | RAID Data Recovery application |
|---|---|
| Conditional branching | Skips irrelevant RAID-specific follow-ups when the client selects 'Not sure' on configuration type, moving straight into capacity and priority-data questions instead of stalling the form. |
| Lead scoring engine | Weighs 'array left untouched' and 'admin/physical access confirmed' heavily, so leads with the best recovery odds and confirmed access rise to the top of your CRM queue. |
| File and photo upload capture | Collects drive bay photos and RAID controller error screens up front so a technician can assess failure severity before the scoping call is scheduled. |
| CRM routing | Sends every qualified RAID lead - with configuration type, failed drive count, and stored capacity attached - into your CRM as a scoped-ready record instead of a raw inquiry. |
| Multi-choice data tagging | Captures which data types matter most - databases, VMs, media, or backups - so you can pre-assign the right recovery specialist before the client gets on the call. |
Common raid data recovery lead scenarios
Single-drive failure, array untouched
A RAID 5 array with one failed drive that hasn't been rebuilt or repaired, with the client confirming admin access - the highest-confidence intake profile for a straightforward recovery.
Multiple failed drives, unclear history
Two or more drives are down and the client isn't sure whether a rebuild was already attempted, so the intake flags it for a closer look before you commit time to a scoping call.
Large business database array
A degraded RAID 6 array over 10 TB storing business documents or databases, with confirmed access - a high-value engagement worth prioritizing over smaller consumer arrays.
VM datastore after a rebuild attempt
A RAID 10 array hosting virtual machines where the client already tried a repair or rebuild before reaching out, which lowers confidence in a clean recovery and needs to be surfaced clearly.
Unknown RAID type, media files
The client isn't sure of the RAID configuration or capacity and mainly wants photo or video files recovered - the intake still captures enough to route the lead, with configuration confirmed on the call.

RAID Data Recovery lead-intake FAQs
Why does the intake ask if the array has been left untouched since the problem started?
Rebuild or repair attempts made before a professional gets involved can overwrite data that would otherwise be recoverable, so an untouched array signals a higher chance of a clean recovery and scores accordingly.
How does the number of failed drives affect lead scoring?
A degraded array or a single failed drive generally means a more contained, higher-confidence recovery, while two or more failed drives introduces more complexity, which the intake reflects in its scoring weights.
What happens if the client doesn't know their RAID configuration?
'Not sure' is a valid answer on the RAID type question, so the lead still gets routed to your CRM and you can confirm the exact configuration during the scoping call rather than losing the lead over one unanswered field.
Does the intake check for physical or admin access before I quote?
Yes, it asks directly whether the client has administrative or physical access to the drives and hardware, since that access is a prerequisite for any imaging or recovery work to begin.
Can I tell what data matters most before the scoping call?
The intake captures which data type is the priority - business documents, media, virtual machines, or backup archives - so you can line up the right recovery approach before you get on the phone.
Is a separate intake used for related recovery work like Hard Drive Data Recovery?
Yes, Cliont builds a dedicated guided intake for each subservice - including Hard Drive Data Recovery and SSD Data Recovery - so the questions stay relevant to the array or device type instead of one generic form.
