Replacing RAID 1 with a single SSD
Hi!
I am currently using windows server essentials 2012. I would like to replace the current 2-disk RAID 1 array with a single SSD. Am I able to do this using any Acronis products?
Thanks!

As Bobbo says, this can be done with ATI 2019. Bobbo assumed that it was an NVMe SSD but this is not clear from the posting. Is it a SATA SSD, or an M.2 SSD (if so, is it SATA or NVMe). There should be no issues if restoring to an ordinary SATA SSD, but as Bobbo points out there are driver issues if it is an M.2 drive.
Backup 12.5 is probably a more powerful product to be used in a server environment.
With RAID one when you 'break' the RAID array you end up with two disks with the same disk signature which can cause havoc. So it is important to remove both of these disks before doing the recovery to the new SSD.
