Techopedia Explains RAID 3 Recovery
RAID 3 recovery generally requires specialized RAID recovery software. Typically, RAID 3 recovery is required due to a failed RAID controller, rebuilding problems, data corruption and deletion as well as other causes. RAID 3 recovery works by reversing the XOR equation of the parity data. The XOR calculation is achieved through the user data and is stored on a parity drive. Using this XOR equation, any data on any drive can be recovered.
