recover data from broken/formated raid0?

I had two hard drives set in raid0. broke my motherboard and had to get a new one. The two boards were differnt brands so my first raid would not work.

I was not thinking and reformated one of the drives.Is there any way I can recover a few folders and have them be anything more than read only?

Thanks

 

From Wiki re: RAID 0:

"If one disk fails, however, all of the data on the array will be lost, as there is neither parity nor mirroring."

You just created this scenario.

Sorry dude, you're hosed.

 

the do have software to try to get it back.

and

I just want to be sure thedata i recover can be written to again.

I am having some problems. I used raidreconster to make an image of of my raid. Unfortionantly I only have 2 drives to work with so i recoverd the raid to the drive that was in in raid but got reformated.I was not thinking and installed raid reconstructer on the reformated drie that was once part of the raid. This is also the same drive I saved the image to.

when i try to run get data back i get error messages that says "missing signature in partition table." i can preced past the message and the program does start looking through the drive image but the program stop with an error message before i can get a list of recovered files.

I imagine i messed this drive up, is there any chance i can get the data off of it?



the second drive hat was part of the raid is still unformatted and i have not done anything with it is it possable that i can det any data off this drive?
Keep i mind i have done nothing to this drive, but it was part f the raid i tried to recover.

Thanks so much.

 

Refer to my earlier post.

You lost 50% of your data. Not 50% of the data set, but 50% of the entire set of data.

I ' j s l k t y n t r c n t u t t i s n e c .

It's just like trying to reconstruct this sentence

without half of the letters.

There is no way to reconstruct 1/2 of a 2 drive RAID 0.

If you had some semblance of data on the formatted volume you may have had a chance.

IMHO, RAID 0 is next to worthless unless you backup to tape on a daily basis for this precise reason.

 

so had i not reformated i might have been able to do it?

 

Yes.

 

Thanks
