Is there a chance that i would loose the raid ( obviously i would loose some data). I am refering to raid with no backup battery unit or anything of that sort. I tried to do it and the worst case was that the rebuilding was long ( both in software raid and hardware raid -- 3ware ). I would appreciate answers Raz.
