Mother board failed... will my onboard raid migrate? 680i -> 780i

[ZeroOne]

My striker extreme finally gave up today after 2.5yrs. It had a raid1 using the onboard controller with all of my data. Can I swap in a newer 780i board like the P5N72-T or Striker II Formula and have the raid volumes and/or my windows installation work? (Vista 64, oem) I also have 2 nvidia cards in SLI, E6600 that I'd like back at it's 400x9 speed, and 4x1GB sticks of 1066 DDR2.

It's funny... I got a small raid card to take this array out, and move it into my server. TODAY was the day for the transfer. It's like it knew. Refused to boot for one last time. I thought I was one of the lucky few that didn't have many issues with the original striker extreme.... looks like mine saved it's spite until the very end.

I'd love to upgrate to an i7, but can't spend the $$ on memory, board, and processor at this time.

If the RAID controller is different, it shouldn't work, unfortunately

Just did some googling and apparently, nvidia used the same southbridge (MCP) for many generations.

Things get even more retro at the south bridge, where we find that the nForce 780i SLI MCP is in fact an nForce 570 SLI MCP. It even says so right on the chip...

...seeing action in nForce 570, 590i, and 680i chipsets.

So if it's the same southbridge, it can be set up with the same raid drives on the new board possibly?
