So I was installing my new Seagate drive today, and decided to follow its instructions. This worked fine until I let it partition my new hard drive, where the program included on the disc decided to do a quick format (I am guessing) on my Raid set (shows up as unpartitioned E drive now). :mad:

How can I recover my data?
 
GetDataBack

You can download the demo, it will tell you what it can recover, then you can decide if its worth buying the program to get your data, back. Heh.
 
Also, will any of this work or am I screwed since its a Raid0 set?

edit: Running that demo now
 
How busted does an array have to be for this to not work? I had a 5drive raid3 setup. My controller reported a single drive dropping out, and when I shut down to check my cabling and rebooted it reported 5 unassigned drives instead of a degraded array and a replacement. I'm still waiting for any response from the card maker, if I don't get anything from them would rebuilding the array and using this tool be able to recover any of my data?
