urgh,
no superblock
you can try to see if you can read your data by recreating the array in
degraded mode, so it does not rebuild.
like:
mdadm --create /dev/md0 --level=5 /dev/hdc1 /dev/hdd1 missing
try substituting the word missing for each of the drives
and see if you can mount the filesystem
if you do find your data use:
mdadm /dev/md0 -a <the device you replaced with missing>
to have it added to the array again
good luck!
