Raid 1 Array Formatted without consent, how can I get data back?

I had a raid 1 array that was 1 TB in size with out 600 gigs of data on it.

As soon as I realized what happened I double checked for my files and then turned the device off.

What's the best route for me to recover the files (or at least try to)?

When I tried Recuva I wasn't able to do a scan because it didn't have a drive letter in Windows. I had one of the disk drives connected via usb to my machine when I tried the scanning.

Any help would be appreciated.

:(

I've succeeded in recovering data from busted RAID arrays with another software, but either way you should be getting asigned a drive letter if your drive(s) are plugged in. They wont be formatted, but they should get a letter.

try running

cmd

diskpart

automount enable

and restarting the computer to see if you get a letter for your array.
