My drives have been in raid the whole time but after i got done installing windows again it shows there is 10mb used and free out of 600gb. I had about 250gb of movies, and games, and apps on there. So is there anyway possible way to recover them?

btw the drive is formatted in fat when it was ntfs. :cry:

edit: i have my 2 300's in raid for data and my 72.11 is os ;)

getdataback raid has delivered excellent results for some of my friends in the past

Agreed.

However it doesn't sound like a RAID issue. Windows can't mess with your array, and since you say it was after a Windows installation it sounds more like a screwed up filesystem. Getdataback NTFS might be a better choice. or Active@ partition recovery.
 
EASEUS Data Recovery Wizard Professional is what im using atm

it found 62k files so far. still counting so i think its working.

ok so it said i need 3000tb of storage to recover.

trying w1zzards suggestion.

the raid was never disabled, it was still intact but when i reinstalled xp it showed up as a fat12 file system.
 
I used GetDataBack before, along with their Raid Reconstructor. Worked well for me, but I had a spare drive that was big enough for the image file that was created.
