HI , We took over a new client 2 month ago, with their current system as is , They have a Intel 2500 series rack mount server . The server got 4 drives in it. Drive 0 = 500GB OS Drive Windows 2003 Standard Drive 1=1000GB Drive 2=1000GB Drive 3=1000GB The previous provider did not do good housekeeping, The 3 TB Drives are sata drives and are spanned as 1 volume called DATASAN, and they had one of the drives that went drive 0 in this case. To tell you I was flabbergasted to see they have 3 TB of data and no raid or backup, I was shaking my head in disbelieve I am sitting with the dilemma now to try and recover information from the 2 remaining drives. If it as me I will lose a drive and go to raid 5 software, but they never did, so I am sitting with about 2tb of information in question to recover, well as far as possible . What software can I use to get the existing info off the remainder drives, I mean they messed up, but I still need to recover as far as possible Please help, I need software to get the info off the other 2 drives

Reading ,my post again , it is the drive 1 that went , the 1TB Drive part of the span set called datasan

The only silver lining is that the drive the got is Seagate drives with 5 year warranty, however they were never informed about things like raid or backup. Apparently the backup unit gone badly like a year ago and they never got it repaired, or replaced. That maybe why the previous vendor don’t do there it work anymore, go figure The bad thing is that it is drive 1 that is gone, as i understand it correctly span start writing on the first drive and continue I really need help for this customer of mine
