Cloning raid0 2x240gb SSD into a single 240gb SSD drive

Thread needs solution

Hi, looking for some help here, hope you could take a while to read.
I have a brand new pc for video edit and C:/ and E:/ drives are not well configured for this purpose, so i need to make changes but maintaining D:/ unit as it is (3x3Tb HDD in raid 0), and changing E:/ for C:/ for better performance in my editing software.
System drive (C:/ unit) is a raid 0 build with 2x240gb SSD drives, which have only 50 gb used. Want to clone it to a single empty 240gb SSD drive (E:/ unit). I´ll use the Clone tool for it but i have a question:
after reboot, change options in Bios to boot from the cloned disk, will this disk be named as C:/ or it will be still named as E:/ unit?
What will happen with D:/? Will it maintain this unit name? If not, is there any method to rename it and go on being D:/?

Thanks

Using the clone might not work. I would suggest a backup of your RAID0 system, then restore on the single SSD. Do the backup from the recovery CD so that you can make sure it can see your RAID 0 as a single volume. If you see 2 separate disks, it won't work.
If you can backup, disconnect any other disk before restoring. This will allow you to first restore the system disk with the proper C:\ settings. Then you'll check that your computer is booting fine, then you will be able to reconnect your other drives.
