Recovery Explorer
Recovery Explorer is SysDev Laboratories' three-edition line for users who need more control than Raise Data Recovery provides without moving directly to the UFS Explorer product family. Standard covers common cases, RAID adds array reconstruction, and Professional extends the toolkit to complex RAID, encryption and specialized storage technologies.

SysDev Laboratories publishes side-by-side comparisons between corresponding Recovery Explorer and UFS Explorer editions. The overlap is substantial, especially at the Professional level; UFS Explorer extends the range with capabilities aimed at specialist workflows, including broader enterprise-storage support, adaptive RAID recovery features and, in its professional family, forensic image handling and SAN-oriented tools.
