Odds are with a bit of work you can find the start of the dara and so that you can mount it. Witb raid1 it should be doable. With raid5/6 you need to know details about the algorithm used by the card. I think there is a disk scanning tool that can be used to find the lvm and or fs header and from that you could use dmsetup to create a device srarting at the right spot for the header to work (without putting a partition on the device). I use software raid just so i do not need the same type of raid card to read it on a new or repaired system
