RAID Array Out of Space

Thread needs solution

Sorry if this question has been asked already...

Problem Description: RAID 1 has run out of space on server.

Proposed Solution: Create complete image back up of Server using True Image 2013. Remove 2 old hard drives from array. Add 2 new larger hard drives to server and create new array reflecting new larger size. Use Acronis Boot Image Disk and copy "Backed UP" image to newly built larger Array. Turn Server back on and continue with intact OS with larger hard disk array.

Question: Is it that easy? Will this solution work? Will I have to extend the new available hard drive space for the OS?

It should work, but first make sure when booted from the Recovery CD that it can see your drives correctly.

The above actions should all be started from the CD not from within Windows.
