So there were two 250 GB drives striped to one 500GB drive.

While installing a PCI card, one of the 250GB drives got unplugged, and I didn't notice.

Boot up the computer, 500GB Raid Drive missing.

Shut it off, open it up and realize it got unplugged. Plug it back in, same problem.

In the RAID Card setup it shows it detects both drives, but doesn't know to use them in the Raid array and there doesn't seem to be a "detect 2nd drive" option.

If I Delete the Array and recreate it, does all the info get lost?

Help!

nevermind, figured it out. delete old array, create new one w/o initializing and voila, raid array returns.
