Yes - RAID recovery can work even when a RAID array has failed due to hardware failure (such as a faulty drive or RAID controller) or software bugs, and has corrupted its firmware or been corrupted by a human operator reconfiguring it wrongly or rebuilding it improperly. It is possible to reassemble the RAID layout, with the correct tools and knowledge, including parity, disk ordering, etc., and recover access to the data that would otherwise appear lost. This renders RAID Recovery an essential lifeline to the users who rely on RAID.
