Pst Stored At Nas Corrupts When Accessed By Windows User

NAS or Network Attached Storage lets you perform data storage to different users linked through the network

. However, storing your Outlook data file or PST file over NAS storage might ultimately result in file corruption. In order to repair a corrupt PST, Inbox Repair Tool can be really helpful; but if in case this Inbox repair tool too fails to restore your data, you will need a third party Outlook pst repair utility.

To discuss this issue in further details, consider a real time scenario when you store your Outlook PST (personal storage folder) on a NAS storage system that can be easily accessed by different computers. Suppose the users have Windows 7 installed on their workstation and you observe that the Outlook PST gets corrupt for no actual reason. When you try accessing the PST file saved on the NAS, you come across an error stating that the PST file is damaged. The PST(s) stored on Windows 7 client workstation are unaffected.

Coming across the news that your PST stored on NAS has gone corrupt, can leave you in disgust. PST files are not devised to be stored on any LAN or WAN link and therefore they might get damaged when stored on any server which is accessed by various users. Apart from IMO accounts, the PST file acts as the local copy of your emails and therefore PST must not be stored as an enterprise environment solution.

The basic reason behind this is that PST file follows file access driven process, whereas the LAN or WAN links use network access driven process. If the file is stored at a remote location like on NAS, the application uses file commands to read or write data to the file. Therefore, the Windows 7 operating system based computer sends these commands over the network. And as a result the PST file might get corrupt in case the network connection fails or slows down.

Repair the corrupt PST file using an Outlook in-build utility named Inbox Repair Tool or scanpst.exe executable file. This is a hidden file and can be located only if the view for hidden files and folders is enabled. It is suggested that you take a backup your damaged PST prior to running the Inbox repair tool as it might cause irrecoverable data loss to the file structure. In Windows 7, the tool is usually located at the following folder:

disk drive:usersusernameAppDataLocalMicrosoftOutlook

where, disk drive is primary drive.

Use superior quality third party pst repair tools which are devised to be safe and secure and designed to perform intensive scan of a corrupt PST. An Outlook PST repair utility is integrated with graphically rich interface so that even a novice or non technical user can restore corrupt PST in any case of file corruption.
