Data recovery on RAID 5

My server just dropped my whole array and I have no idea how to get the data back. As far as I know, everything is still there. I rebuilt and verified the array with the software, but the drive shows up as just a standard RAW D drive in my computer. When I try to access it, it prompts me to format it, which I'm not going to do because I want the data on it.
I don't even know what happened. I was just writing data to it and then nothing, the drive is gone. I checked my software management program and all drives are completely independent of eachother. The error log shows a "Primary DCB read error" on all drives at exactly the same time.

If this is fixable, how do I fix it? I'd just like the data back.
