Hi,
A lot depends on how the system is set up now. If it's in a RAID 0 now, then
an image backup may be necessary to make the switch. Backup, make the
change, replace the image. If it's a non-RAIDed standard 2 drive setup, then
switching to the hardware RAID will likely require a reinstall so the
supporting driver is incorporated and underlying HAL can be created. I
wouldn't count on being able to make the switch without a fresh install.
