Hey, well.

If you have two physical disks, and two logical volumes on them. Both a RAID0 and a RAID1 on it.

Did you put the OS on the raid0??

Anyway, the data that was on the raid0 are gone. You may be able to get the RAID1 data back. One thing you can do is to re-create the raid0 logical volume and re-install Windows.
Then after that you may be able to get the data back that was on the raid1.

There are softwares that may work (I don't have any experience with any though) or there are companies around as well that assist you with recovering lost data on hard drives.

HI Sony,

YOu mentioned two hard drive in raid 0 and raid 1 and also recovery drive D in raid 5.

What is the status of the logical drive?

Yeah it's a little confusing.
Says raid5 in the topic too.

Do you have RAID 0, RAID 1 or RAID 0+1 for your drive D:. Sounds like RAID 0 striping. If this is the case, you can't recover RAID 0 has not fault redundancy. What does the HP array tools say about the array. If RAID 5 on drive D. Did you lose more than one drive? Do you have a spare drive installed. You might able to add a spare drive and see if it fails over.

How many drives are on the server and how are they configured?
