I am having to send my Mobo in to be repaired and as such I need to backup my RAID 0 which is what my programs and windows are on. What is the best and safest way to clone my array so when I remake it with the repaired/new motherboard I can just restore the cloned backup like nothing changed?

I believe if you are getting the same MOBO back just remember which drive was plugged into which sata port on the MOBO and it may work. Might want some others input on this one. May want to purchase an extranal and copy everything to it just incase also.

The ASUS tech I talked to said it would be a good idea to back it up anyways just in case, there is a chance the motherboard isn't able to be repaired and they have to give me a new one. And I have an external but I don't want to just copy things I want to make a full backup image so I can restore it and my windows install will be exactly the same
