Yep. To actually be able to use the disks for RAID in SE3310, the admin would need to "deinitialize" the disks first.

Best bet is, backup your data before you do this movement, and
That sounds kinda awkward - suppose the array breaks (but the disks don't). In that case, the data is lost? Doesn't sound too professional to me... I mean, yes, of course you do backups, sure. But at least I only do one backup per day. If the array breaks shortly before the backup starts, then one day of work is lost.
Hard to imagine that Sun really wants its users to go that route.

also backup the current storage configuration file .xml
What XML file? The RAID is configured and setup from "inside" the SE3310 over the telnet interface.
