Accidently formatted MS Storage space.

Hello, I have(had) 2 2TB SATA HDDs as 2-way mirror in Storage spaces.

This is my story:

1. I ran diskpart.exe to format some hdd.

2. Selected wrong disk.

3. Cleaned disk.

4. Started to format it.

5. Noticed it was wrong disk.

6. Cancelled format in disk management.

7. Removed storage from storage space. (thought this was general mirror, so I could restore data with acronis disk recovery.)

8. Tried Acronis disk recovery, found out, it can not seach for partitions on GPT-formatted drives.

9. Converted 2-nd drive to MBR.

10. Tried Acronis again, it found nothing.

11. Tried WinHex, It found some partitions, but it was useless.

12. Tried to find files with signature search - it found some JPGs.

13. Came here to ask about storage spaces.

How do I get my data back?

Usual tricks with editing MBR in hex editor not work anymore, as I can see.

Thank you!
