Please read other posts in this topic, in particular Don Brady's viewtopic.php?p=485#p485 and the subsequent reassurance that access to data was regained.
For the current Community Edition 1.1.1 (maybe more than with Silver) some familiarity with command line approaches may be required, so if you're hesitant to use Terminal: do please let us know and we'll do our best to walk through the steps, with a little extra explanation.

I see your cross posts under HELP ALL MY DATA is gone!; now I'm less sure of the symptoms in your case.
Key points from the two topics:
… about 3TB of data on the drive …
… When I try to run the check utility in System Preferences in the Zevo pane, the system hangs and then the computer restarts …
… When I plug the drive into the USB after a few the Mac restarts …
Please: what model is the Mac?
How much memory (RAM) is installed?
What make and model is the drive with which you have trouble?
With which version/build of the Silver Edition did you format the disk? If you can't recall the version, can you recall an approximate date?
Which operating system do you use?
When did you install the Community Edition of ZEVO?
For the drive with which you have trouble, which one of the following is true?
[ ] (a) initial use with a Community Edition was trouble-free, for a few minutes or hours or more; or
[ ] (b) kernel panics began after the ZEVO pane of System Preferences began a checkup.
(Bear in mind: ZEVO is designed to continue, wherever possible, a checkup that is interrupted.)
One or more of the kernel panic reports will be useful. You'll find these at
/Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports
Hint for users of phpBB forum software
