p410 Raid 0 Boot Drive - SSA Was striping to 2nd drive which was stopped/deleted at 1% - Recovery?

Long story short I made a big mistake on my own server.

Boot drive was a single drive in RAID 0 on a p410 controller.  I was adding a drive to mirror the boot drive, but I mistakenly added the new drive to the array and it automatically started the "transformation" process under ACU in Windows Server 2012 R2.  When I realized it was not mirroring At 1% I told it to remove the new drive from the array.   It removed it, windows crashed, and system inoperable / not booting.

Is their any possibility to recover from this?  I do not have a backup any time recently at all of the boot drive.  My mistake here.  Any chance to get this back going?   This just happened a few moments ago.

 

Suggestions?  Any assistance would be appreciated.

Re: p410 Raid 0 Boot Drive - SSA Was striping to 2nd drive which was stopped/deleted at 1% - Recover

Hello All,

I have been hesitant to try much so far as I want to make sure I proceed the best possible way.   I did boot up the ACU CD and it sees thoes 2 drives as unassigned.

Is their any possibility of adding them back to a RAID 0 and have the "transformation" or striping ot the data resume?

or 

Is their any possibility of repairing the structure of the original drive since presumabily less then 1% of the data has been striped to the 2nd drive?   Any way to recreate its array without loss?
