Raid0 error from matrix manager

Hello, I'm getting an error from the intel matrix manager that an error occurred. I have 2 WD 250gb drives configured for RAID 0. In the matrix console, the drive number 1 had an error icon on it. I right clicked and changed to normal. The pc seems to work ok. What are my options? I do need to restore this installation as it is now. Can I just revert back to non raid in the bootup matrix screen and replace the drive? Also I would like to make it RAID 1 instead of 0 again.  This is an Optiplex 755 running XP sp3. It needs to stay this way for an application that runs on it. The pc is a stand alone non network install and does not receive updates, so it is running version 7.6.1.1001 of Matrix manager. Thanks

Raid 0 has no failsafe.  Losing 1 drive in Raid 0 loses 100 percent of the data on the RAID container.

Is there a way to convert my RAID 0, to Raid 1 or 0+1? Thanks Speed!

Turn off the computer.
Replace the failed drive with a new drive of equal or greater capacity.
Restart the computer. When prompted during system startup, press CTRL+I at the same time to enter the option ROM user interface.
Click Delete RAID Volume.
Press the up/down arrow keys to select the failed RAID 0 volume.
Press Delete to delete the volume.
Press Y to confirm the deletion.
Click Create RAID Volume and follow the prompts to create a RAID 0 volume. Note: If the volume contained the operating system, this will need to be reinstalled
Click Exit.

 

Regards,

John
