array

I had drives fail in both logical drives on a server. When I replaced failed 146GB drive in Raid 5 array with four (4) 146GB drives. On reboot the Smart Array controller asked if I wanted to accept data loss. Guess mistake to choose yes.

Can't seem to find a way to get system to repair RAID5 but it seems to want to just create a new partition.

Is there anyway I can go back and get the system to restore the data from other three drives now that I said accept data loss?
