if the drive is not bootable there is a high possibility its not readable anymore. :)

It won't corrupt the other drive or harm it but the RAID array you will try to build will fail and ruin the RAID array due to corruption. It would be like using two pieces of paper taped together to build a poster (small one) and one piece of paper was wet and semi torn, you tape them together and try to make your poster. When you write on the good one the text is there but when you write on the bad paper section it tears and falls apart. Is the poster readable? Probably not.

I roll with sigs off so I have no idea what you're advertising.

 

This is NOT the signature you are looking for.
