I wouldn't recommend RAID 0 in the first place. Even less so with used drives. Why are you wanting RAID 0? Unless you're transferring large files to drives that can operate at similar speeds, you're not going to get much benefit out of it. 

 

Your OS will see the RAID 0 array as a single drive. Backing it up is the same as it would be for a single drive.
