Re: move raid disks to another server
This should work.
You need to take care that if you are moving just one disk that you don't stick it in there only to be overwritten by the already running disk.
To insure this does not happen, you may need to shut down the system and boot off only the new raid disk. then you can stick the original in and know that the synch occurs from and to the correct disks.

Re: move raid disks to another server
Whilst I agree with Steven in theory, I would proceed only if the data is backed up. I moved a disk from a D260 to a D360, identical except the number of internal disk (I/O, memory and disk ID's all the same) and the machine did not boot - it panic'd on booting, so past expierience suggests to me that proceed under caution and only if the data is backed up.
I appreciate that the machines here are much newer and I would love to be proven wrong, but data is king so it needs protection.
Sorry to be a pesimist.
Mike.

Re: move raid disks to another server
If the disks are mirrored, you can use only one disk, but it is always better to have a backup of the data (on tape).
Hope this helps!

Torsten.
