Hi,

I'm going to get a new computer pretty much (cpu, motherboard, ram and gpu) and I have a raid 0 & raid 1 setup. I'm not too worried about the 2 drives in Raid 0 since that is OS and I'm going to format that anyways but I'm wondering about my raid 1 drives (2x320gigs).

Can I just disconnect the drives and hook them up to the new motherboard and then rebuild the array or will I lose the data on both drives by doing so? My backup plan is just to copy my data on my 320gig HDD to my external 500gb HDD and then but if I don't need to do that, that would be great.

Thanks for any info :D

In most config Raid 1 is kind of universal. You should be able to break the array and rebuild. What man is doing the RAID on the board?

make sure you copy your data to your 500gb anyways. we cannot be absolutely sure everything will go fine.
