Disk not recognized as part of array

Last response: in Storage

After installing a new CPU and rerouting some cables (which means unplugging the HDDs and switching around sata cables) My RAID 0 (striped 128kb) array is not working because one of the 2 disks is not showing as a member disk in the configuration screen at boot. I don't want to recreate the array because it would probably erase my data. Both of the drives appear, but only one is a Member disk, and not the other. Is there a way to recover the data on these or get the array working(very important)?

ASUS P5E Deluxe
Core 2 Quad Q9550 (shouldn't matter)
4x250GB Seagate SATA

try to connect the hdds just the way it was before. you should be able to get the system see the raid.

Yes I have tried that. It does not seem to matter what port the HDD is plugged into, because i switched both of them to different ports, and one was still raid and the other wasn't.
