Simple: Do your normal backup procedure, move the disks to the new controller, create the RAID5 array and do your normal restore procedure. The RAID should be transparent enough to Windows. If that fails, you can still go back to the old configuration. If you do not have a procedure for complete backup and desaster recovery, then create that first, since you need it anyways for any kind of professional server operation. Arno |
