Proliant 8000 - will removal of array cause a reboot?

I have a Proliant 800 server that is full to the hilt with drives. I have moved everything but the OS to a san. I now want to remove the internal drives as they are no longer needed (keeping the three drives that contain the OS).
I am planning on doing the following:

Going into windows disk manager and removing the partitions.
Then going into CPQ array utility and deleting the arrays.
Then I will save and exit ACU.

Will this cause the server to ask for a reboot? Just wondering if I can do this during the day or not.
