Under the simple recovery model, the file must belong to a read-only filegroup.
Under the full or bulk-logged recovery model, before you can restore files, you must back up the
active transaction log (known as the tail of the log). For more information, see Back Up a Transaction
Log (SQL Server).
To restore a database that is encrypted, you must have access to the certificate or asymmetric key
that was used to encrypt the database. Without the certificate or asymmetric key, the database
cannot be restored. As a result, the certificate that is used to encrypt the database encryption key
must be retained as long as the backup is needed. For more information, see SQL Server Certificates
and Asymmetric Keys.

  1. Revisor says:

    The only file not corrupted is sales_2.ndf so to do the restore in “minimum amount of time” the file restore is not a good choice.
    The good anwser seems to be : C : “Perform a restore from a full backup.”
