creates an image of an hardware RAID array

[ekadim]

There are a number of freewares that create images of single hard disks like Acronis True Image Home, Drive XML, Paragon etc. However, I do not know for sure whether any of these programs or any other free program makes an image of a RAID system (for instance RAID 1) and can easily restore. Instead of using conventional backup programs like ntbackup, I want to deploy such a solution (preferably imaging to an external hard disk).

Any advise?

Thanks in advance.
