Say you move 2 HDs that are part of a RAID array from internal cage to external enclosure. Is it possible to simply rebuild the array with the same 2 drives, retaining data, or would the array be effectively destroyed?
I have a bracket on the back with 2 eSATA ports, connected with cables to SATA ports on the MB, so it would be possible to connect the 2 drives to the same 2 ports as they were when mounted internally. Will this work, or is the chipset/HD controller of the external enclosure going to mess this up?
Figured getting an external drive would be handy, but it's proving to be a pita.
