I have the SSD installed as the boot drive and my old RAID array as a data drive. I wiped the RAID 0 drive and reconfigured it as a RAID 1 array for better reliability. I used Macrium Reflect software for imaging the drives and restoring them as needed. The SSD boots much quicker and runs applications faster too.
