I'm looking at tinkering around with RAID (1 probably, I don't do enough data shuffling activities to see any performance benefits from 0) and will soon be purchasing another WD 640GB to match the one I have now.
In reading about RAID setups it seems the act of changing BIOS settings to RAID kills any data currently on the disk, like partitioning. I only have one HDD today and will have a second one next week... when the new drive gets here is there any way I can actually save my existing installation to be mirrored across both drives? Or am I boned and have to start from scratch?
Thanks!
