SolutionAssuming that the single disk is set up as raid0 array right now, you can add a second disk into the raid0 array, allow it to rebuild as raid0 and then perform a raid level migration from raid0 to raid1.

With the new SA controllers the online features are available if the controller has the BBWC module installed. However this is not mentioned as a requirement with the 5i and 5i Plus. By the way check which controller you have and if the BBWC is installed and operational.
Online means the operation is done while the server is up and running.
Who from HP told you you need to reformat both drives as raid1? You should go back and challenge them.
As always before you start major disk surgery, run a full backup of your disk.

Re: DL360 G3 Create Mirror
I've seen it once. Colleague replaced a disk and powered on the server. Bye-bye to my data :-(
Anyway, I would still make should I had a good backup of the system.
