Can you use something like Acronis Disk Director to image your drives for backup purpose in case it goes wrong? I dont know if that is possible, but just a thought.

Otherwise to be on the VERY SAFE side, I would suggest you pick up an identical mainboard off ebay. Get the drives booted. Save the critical data. Migrate. Resell the ebay board. Total loss: time and shipping costs. But it is the safest bet.
Even on an identical board I still need to plug in the drives in the correct way and initialise the RAID array I'm looking my ass off for a good tool, Acronis has helped me in the past with TrueImage though, I might take a look there as well.

Isn't it great, working on private problems at work?
