Your friend has a setup with four SSDs and plans to reorganize them. He created a system image of the OS drive last night, but now needs guidance on moving everything forward. There’s a 500GB SSD with the operating system and three 250GB SSDs arranged in RAID 5. Currently, the OS is on the smaller 230GB drive, so wiping all disks is necessary before rebuilding. He also intends to set up the 250GB SSDs in RAID 5. The question is whether restoring multiple images to the new array will work without conflicts, or if there’s a better approach. Thanks ahead!
