Be sure to have the latest driver and firmware for your PERC 2/Si before doing this.  The latest firmware version is 2.8.0.6089. 
 
 
After you make that you have the latest driver and firmware installed, then you can perform a reconfigure on your Virtual Disk.  It will allow you to add an array disk to the virtual disk.  You shouldn't lose any data but it is always a good idea to have a backup in case.
