[nflug] Here is something I should know, but I've never tried it in a production environment, so...

I have one older, slower server with CENT OS 5.1 on it.  So far, so good. 

I want to move it over to another, newer, physical box.  No problem. 

Problem: I have a drive array set up on the old box using an LSI 
magaraid 6 SATA card. 

Could I just take the physical drives out of the old box, put them into 
the new box, complete with the Megaraid card, and have the CENT OS 
recognize all the different hardware? 

// I'm guessing "yes", but I'm worried about the drive array.  That has 
the important data. The boot drive is a pretty generic setup and can be 
remade in minutes.  The raid array would take a few days to rebuild.
