Not too worried about the loss of redundancy, it's a backup server, if it ever went live, it wouldn't be for long, just need more storage on it, for now. I can actually, via OpenManage, reconfigure from RAID5 to RAID0, and increase the size of the RAID array by almost a couple TBs, but it doesn't say anything if the data in the RAID array will be lost. The RAID array contains the current backup files.

TLDR; does anyone know if running the "reconfigure" RAID array wizard using OpenManage on a T620, PERC H310 going from RAID5 to RAID0 would cause data loss on the array, or keep the data intact?
