I'm running a server with a single Raptor. I'm planning on hooking it and another Raptor into my SATA RAID card. Is there an easy way to migrate the single drive to a RAID-1 array without losing the data on the drive? I can't find any specific info on this. The array does do OCE and it would really just be as if one drive had died.

Anyone have any suggestions or done this before?
 
That depends on your controller. Sometimes disks appear differently from arrays, so Windows doesn't recognize them. But if you can boot a single disk off the controller, odds are you'll be fine to migrate to two disks.
 
Somehow I figured you'd be the one to answer that question. Thanks much. You're definitely an asset to the forum.
