If you go RAID0, how easy is it to revert?

If I set up 2 drives on RAID 0 and go for a while, then change my mind and want to have my 2 drives separate, what steps are involved (if it's even possible) to keep all of my data on 1 drive?
 
Not going to happen. You'll have to backup your data somehow - another drive, CD, whatever. When you break the array, the data is toast.

Amen...

EDIT: lol... the answer i quoted is correct, except that "mirror" was included by mistake.
 
raid 0 isnt a mirror guys, its striping, mirrored drives you can save, but striped you can not, youd have to copy it all to another location then reformat the drives as regular drives.
