If this is high value data it is best to seek the help of a data recovery lab.

If you want to risk a DIY recovery there is RAID recovery software you can try. Some popular choices are UFSexplorer R-Studio or DMDE. You might first check the SMART status of each RAID member drive with an app like CrystalDiskInfo to see if the drives are healthy.

If you get stuck or need help I can provide remote assistance if you like.
