Follow the final recovery procedure to recover data to a destination folder that can be on another internal hard drive such as an
IDE, SCSI or SATA drive, a removable drive such as an USB hard drive, a memory stick, or a network shared folder located on another
computer.
A good strategy is to recover only a sample of files and make sure they can be opened and used in their respective application.
If these files are functional then recover the remaining files. After recovery the original RAID drives should be safely kept and not reused until all
data has been confirmed to have been recovered.
For fast recovery use an internal drive such as IDE, SATA, SCSI drive. Recovery to an external drive such as a USB-attached
drive or a network shared folder can be much slower. The actual recovery speed depends on many factors including the speed
and type of connection of the original drives, and the sizes of the files, the speed
and type of connection of the destination drive. Internal drives are the fastest. It takes less time to recover a small number
of large files than it does for a large number of small files. As of this writing in 2007 it is common to get between one and
two gigabytes of data recovered per minute on a typical computer configuration.
