Posting to the list is sensible.  Posting to lots of over vaguely
related people like you did is not appreciated.

If you lose one drive from a RAID0, you have effectively lost
everything.  This includes file names and data.

An expert in filesystem forensics might be able to recover some bits,
but it would be a lot of work very fairly little expected reward.

The information you provide describes a 4-drive RAID1, not RAID0.

All the data should equally be on all devices.

Can't you just
  mount /dev/md0 /mnt

and access the files?
What does "fsck -n /dev/md0" report?

what sort of filesystem did you have on /dev/md0??
