When you realize that your important files from RAID disk has been unintentionally deleted then you will have that sinking feeling. However, things are not always smooth sailing so it pays to understand the limitations. Firstly of all, if the area of the RAID drive occupied by deleted files are available for reuse, Windows will eventually overwrite them with new files and once that happens, your data is vanished completely.

When you notice your loss, don't save any new files to the disk until you recover those files from it.
Some other major causes for file deletion:
- Permanent Deletion: This kind of situation occurs when you erase files by hitting ‘Shift Delete’ keys combination or from DOS Command Prompt or emptying Windows Recycle Bin folder
- Virus intrusion: Connecting malware infected device or sharing virus infected files onto RAID tends to file loss. Also, while scanning system with unsafe antivirus tool results in removal of certain files without users' notification
