Swapping RAIDS

[CRSharff]

Just a quick question,

I have a RAID set up on my current AMD 939 system and I am upgrading to a Abit IP35 Pro with Q6600. The RAID consists of 2x250gb in Striping mode. When I move over the Abit IP35 Pro will the RAID follow with it or what will I have to do?

Thank you

You'll need to get your data off the array before moving it, set up the array from scratch on the new mobo, then move your data back on. Since you run RAID 0 you should have a current backup on something like an external drive, right?

Okay so these drives have to be cleared before moving them to the new motherboard and I'll have to create a new RAID from scratch?

No I don't have a external hard drive or anything for back up really, you sound like I should have.

I have 3 250gb drives, two are in a RAID and 1 is for Windows.

Yes, that is exactly what you need to do.
