I need a cheap way to recover my Nvraid 0 drives data

Looks like I have lost my MB or CPU. I am going to get new build to replace with.

However, I have one problem left. I had used the onboard Nvida 250gb software raid for Raid 0 setup. This has my OS and other data left on it. I need to figure out how recover this data. Any easy and cheap way to get my data out of the Nvraid drives?

Thanks in advance!
 
RAID 0 off a mobo, with no backup? tsk tsk tsk.

What do you consider cheap? Finding a new controller (ie motherboard) with the same firmware loaded.

EDIT: I'm sure there might be other methods. I don't mess with fakeRAID.
 
When I moved from a X38 chipset (Gigabyte board) to a P45 it recognized it.

Put your drives in a new Nvidia chipset board and I bet it reads it. I had the same situation as you (but using Intel Active Matrix RAID), but I have a external backup. There's no other way than trying the array on other boards, I doubt you're going to have any luck with anything but Nvidia chipsets though.
 
Another chipset nVidia board may recognize the raid array but it's not guaranteed. If you absolutely have to recover that data you're going to have to hunt down another identical chipset board (preferably the same model but the chipset is probably the critical part).

Now you know one of the reasons we don't typically recommend raid0 around here.
