After the reboot the Storage space was put into an offline state. Bringing it back online resulted in it displaying the correct driver letter (D:) but in a RAW state.

I have been using ReFS Storage spaces for years and never had this catastrophic corruption issue until I started using Primocache. Now I have to spend weeks copying data back unless your dev team has any ideas on how to get the ReFS partition back. The data is there I can see it with ReclaiMe File Recovery. Various softwares recognize it as ReFS, tried AOMEI Partition Assistant Partition recovery wizard but no luck. If there is nothing that can be done I will need to ask for a refund as I will not be able to use this software anymore as it is unreliable with my configuration.
