I have two disks used to set as Raid 0, and another disk as ACHI . Raid 0 as system, ACHI as documents and backup

I was trying to delete Raid 0 and re-install tonight.

I accidentally set raid 0 as Raid 5, and created a 50G partition. Normally, I will be noticed to chose member disks at this time, but not today. After that, I realized that my third disk became a member of Raid 5, and all data were gone. Is there any way I can undo and get my data back from my third disk? I haven't write anything, or set member disk to non-raid yet. Is there any software I should try? Thanks.

My system
Gigabyte P35-D3R
Intel Sata controller

At this point of time, you will not get anything by reverting back from RAID5 to RAID0

Yes you may try to recover your data by several file recovery softwares, even I will recommend you to go with steller. Make sure you do not read or write anything on that particular hard disk. First install the file recovery software on another computer and connect that hard disk. If you can afford, go to some professional data recovery vendor and do not take any risk.
