Upgrade Size of Motherboard Intel RAID 1 Array from 2x500GB to 2x1TB Drives
I am looking to upgrade my Dell Precision 3431 RAID 1 array that is using the built-in Intel motherboard RAID which is currently configured as 2x500GB SSD drives to bigger 2X1TB SSD drives. This computer does boot into Windows 10 from this array. These are the only drives in the system other than a DVD player. How can I accomplish this?
Can I simply:
1) Use Acronis 2021 (from ATI boot disc) and perform a System Image from the current RAID 1 array to a USB backup drive.
2) Shutdown and remove the 2x500GB SSD drives and install the 2x1TB SSD drives.
3) From BIOS, create a new RAID 1 array with the same name as the old array.
4) Boot again from ATI boot disc and restore the image from the USB backup drive to the new RAID 1 array.
Any help is appreciated!
