SQL server after RAID problems

We had a SQL server die due to some RAID problems. We sent the machine out to a data recovery company and they are able to recover the .MDF and .LDF files from the drives. Will I be able to use those files to restore the databases to a new machine?

What do I need to watch out for? Thanks!

Have u tried out the old way of creating empty database with same name.

Stop sql server

Paste database at the same location ...

And restart the server ....

Does it helping u out .....

If that doesn't help, then the only thing I can advise is to try to restore database using SQL Server Recovery Toolbox. All the details about this program can be found at the link. http://www.oemailrecovery.com/sql_repair...
