I currently have an adaptec 2610sa and 5x500GB drives configured in a RAID 5 array. I have another box with newer hardware that I'd like to move the controller and drives to. Does anyone know if the controller should retain the array configuration when it is moved or will it be necessary to backup the data?

From memory, I uninstalled a 2610SA to reconfigure a MegaRAID i4 and on reinstallation all the data was still there.

Thanks for the reply Nick. I am rather impatient and since I was relatively sure it would work I took the chance and am happy to report that all of my data was intact.
