Data Loss

Here is my setup:

Windows Home Server 2011 installed on 1TB HDD

6x 1.5TB HDD in windows software RAID 5 - almost completely full

3x 4TB Drives- newly acquired and no data on them

This is what I was working on:

My goal is to migrate this system to unraid. The problem is that unraid can't read the Windows Software RAID5, and Windows can't write to reiserfs drives.

This was my setup to migrate this:

Unraid in a virtual machine (virtualbox) w/ direct access to the 3 new drives. It formats the drives, I transfer the data through unraid onto the 3 reiserFS drives

Then I would boot the system on unraid directly, verify access to the 3 new drives and the data integrity, then I would wipe the 6 drive away and format it into the unraid setup.

My mistake:

First thing I did after getting unraid to work virtually and format the 3 drives was do a dry run. I rebooted off of my unraid flash drive, manually selected my 3 new drives as part of the array (it didn't auto detect them) and start the array OH BALLS I JUST SCREWED UP. I accidentally selected 2 of the 1.5TB drives as part of the array. As such, it listed them as "unformatted", I quickly stopped the array **without clicking format**, assigned the correct 3 drives and it saw the test files perfectly.

When I rebooted, my windows software raid was missing. Opened disk management and it showed Failed, and 2 of the 1.5TB drives just show up as healthy (Active), windows doesn't recognize how they are formatted anymore.

So far I have used a tool to get all of the RAID parameters, then used ZAR to attempt reconstruction of the array, but it said like 49% integrity after scanning for like 20 hours. I honestly don't know what I am doing, and there are about 2GB of data on the array that are going to be difficult to replace. If anyone could give me any advice on how to

1) Repair the array to a functional state without losing data

-or-

2) Recover the data from the array using recovery software
