Basically I had 2 1tb hdd's striped together in windows 10, they were used for game storage, decided to switch SSD's but unplugged both drives before I reinstalled windows onto the new ssd, however since plugging both drives back in I have been unable to find them within windows, and attempting to initialise the disks results in an error saying "The system cannot find the file specified". 

 

Any ideas?

Try to take them off of raid or whatever and then allocate the space.
