Will I be able to backup my OS installation and then restore it once I have configured RAID 0?
I'll be using an Areca 1220

Ok, it worked
I used the Vista imager to do this.
It was a little tricky to install the drivers for the ARC-1220 because there are ~3 places where the vista install DVD allows you to add drivers and I did so on all 3 parts; I had the restore fail on me the first couple of times I tried it.
Something I did was add the ARECA drivers to the driver Vista pool before making the image. Here's an article that mentions this:

So Yes. it can be done though I took so many precautions that I'm not sure which worked and which were extraneous.
I went from 1 VRaptor to VRaptor RAID0 on another HBA (Intel -> Areca).
