Raid 5 4x250GB taking forever to autodetect

Hello,
New to the software. I have a server that mobo died. the array/drives were heathy (to my knowledge) but i just want to pull off the data using the tools.
4x 250 gig ssd drives (i have 'cloned' them using the tool and placed on a mechanical drive)
Created the virtual array and added the 4 image files to it.
Clicking the Auto detect says i have 15 days remaining and it keeps climbing. its been running for a few hours now and is at 1.23 GB processed at 93% detection rate. But i feel the "auto detect" should be much much faster than this no?

any help is appreciated !

Finding RAID parameters may take very long time. You may also try this tool: ReclaiMe Free RAID Recovery.

It's usually faster to just figure it out manually. You weren't using something like WSS (Windows Storage Spaces) for the RAID were you? I assume you are referring to a simple BIOS RAID created by the motherboard???
