Array Showing as RAW

[hellarda]

Hi all,

My home server just BSOD'd so had to reset. Having rebooted, my main Data drive 5x2tb and 1x3tb (because I received a 3tb drive instead of 2) RAID 5 array is showing under disk management as RAW and is not accessible at all.

It is running off of a PERC H700 controller, and megaraid reports the array as optimal and all disks are perfect under Hard disk sentinel.

I have tried running chkdsk on it, but it says as the filesystem is ReFS it doesn't need checking?

Any Ideas?

Cheers

Ali

Yeah, it's all media etc so don't have a backup it's just a pain to redownload.

Surely there must be someway of getting the data off?

edit: have found two ReFS errors in event viewer as follows:

Volume D: is formatted as ReFS but ReFS is unable to mount it; ReFS encountered status A portion of the file system requires repair..

and

The file system detected a checksum error and was not able to correct it. The name of the file or folder is "<unable to determine file name>".

This is not the issue. The RAID itself is perfectly fine, Megaraid has and reports all the drives and the array as optimal. It can also see the logical volume and says there is no issue with it.

The issue is that windows cannot find a filesystem on the drive?
