Help with failed RAID controller

[Dug]

We had 1 drive fail in a RAID 1 configuration.
Then the RAID controller went bad. (Confirmed after calling Dell)
Before the new raid controller comes in, is there a way to make a duplicate of the good drive.

I have a new hard drive that is the same.
I have an external USB hard drive caddy.
I've use clonezilla all the time to back up systems.

I'm just worried about what a different windows machine would do to the drive if I plugged it in without using the same controller.

Nah... too much trouble

Set up your new array and restore your stuff from backup.

Each Raid 1 disk normally works by itself. When my 8308elp failed i just unplugged one of the raid 1 disks and plugged it into the main board as a normal disk and stint to boot. In fact server is still running off of the one disk as I'm getting ready to build into a new server, didn't want to waste money on another old controller.
