The whole concept behind Raid mode striping is that everything gets split equally between the two drives...So you, you have to start with a fresh clean install of Windows.
Do you know that if you do this and one drive goes bad you loose everything?

EVERYTHING will be deleted. It is just like reformatting the drives.
