Ok, I am going from an Evga 680I MB to an Abit IP35Pro.

I currently have 2 WD 74gig raptors running RAID 0 on the 680I

Will I lose all data on them, or will the new controller see the array?

This may be a noob question, but I am not well versed in the ways of RAID. In fact, I'm thinking of dropping the raptors all together with the new MB, and just selling them to buy a bigger Seagate.
 
the new controller won't see the raid (ich9 raid chip vs nvidia) and if you create new raid array all data will be deleted. If you want to preserve your data back it up to external hard drive or something before moving your raid to new motherboard.
