With Acronis, aomei backupper, or other cloning software. Hang a Sata drives of sufficient size off the motherboard SATA interface, clone your individual arrays to individual SATA drives. Reboot server to make sure you can boot off the MB interface's system clone ( I assume it is the raid 1). Transfer the clone drives to the other servers, boot off the MB interface's system drive clone, reverse clone to your other server's, preconfigured raid 1 and raid 6 arrays. This is good for servers which have the same hardware. If not Acronis paid version has a bare metal restore module. Before cloning always run chkdsk /f on the source arrays.
