Hardware Forums - View Single Post - Replacing an Array Controller

I have a hp 6401 array controller with dual RAID 5 setup. I need to replace this controller with a new one. Will I loose data or partition information when I remove the existing controller?

Does the array controller hold the array information or is it the RAID5 on the hard drives?
