That is different. Strictly speaking, what you describe here is *not*
RAID 0. It is some kind of logical volume thing.
The good news is that, in this case, all the data on the good drive
should be contiguous and intact except for the end portions that are
"completed" on the bad drive. If you can get the filesystem structure
to no longer "point" at the bad drive, you would only loose the data on
the bad drive.
I don't know how to do that though so maybe this whole comment is a time
waster for you. ;^)
When buying torx driver bits, spend the extra for one with good quality
steel. I have purchased cheap ones only to have them twist and break in
the screw.
