Boy, did I goof this up. Finally had everything working then realized that I had added the drive with all the old data! ouch..
I've tried a number of scan tools to try and recover the partition and the data with no luck. Any suggestions? When adding a drive to the server does it do something different than a normal format or repartition? i've recovered files before but its never been this hard. I'd appreciate any help I could get on this. Thanks
No, it's a regular quick format of the drive.
At this point, your only option is data recovery (either a DIY app or a professional data recovery service).
