I don't understand what you mean exactly by "reconstructed". A RAID can be reassembled from existing disks or can be created from scratch, assigning two disks or (in a quite unusual way) assigning one disk and then grow it to two disk. Your "then added two Raid drives" leaves me wondering what kind of commands were actually executed on your system. > When that finished I checked for data/directories and there was > nothing.

It looks like you have a working filesystem, which is also empty. Accidentally reformatted? Recursive delete? Try this: tune2fs -l /dev/md0 and paste the output. It will be interesting to see Filesystem created: Mount count: >From what you said until now, it looks like a problem at the fileystem level, not at the RAID level, not at the hardware level. > So my only disaster is the seeming loss of some very important stuff. I'm tempted to remember you that backups are important if your files are important and that RAID 1 is not a backup. But you sadly know that, for sure. I hope your stuff is still recoverable.
