RAID1: Migrate HDD to SSD?
- by OMG Ponies
My current workstation uses an Adaptec 5805, with Win2008 mirrored between two 72 GB (10K?) savvio drives.
My question is if there's a way to migrate the mirror to use SSDs - I've been looking at 90GB Corsair Force (Sandy Bridge) to replace the existing setup. If it's possible, without installing the OS fresh.
If I replaced the mirrored drive with an SSD, would the array sync the drives? Then I could promote the SSD mirror to be the primary, and use the second SSD as the mirror. That'd be too easy...
Or should use Ghost to get an image of the existing setup, apply it to the SSD for a new mirror to be setup on?
