What Raid level is it using? If it's raid 0 or 5 and you installed as single drives, then the data is probably being read in stripes and sent to Windows as bad data. The settings to run should be the same settings as used to install the OS. If it's Raid 1 then it really shouldn't matter. You can't make a striped type raid out of disks with existing data.
