Unfortunately, I guess, I did not go the route of hardware raid since it was already RAID configured through the meta tools. I was very fortunate to have a spare machine that is a hardware twin to the one that needs to be update so I've been able to create the same environment for testing methods of cloning, etc.
I'll be doing a test clone of a second T2000 today and so far it has gone identically to the first one.
