I've done this in a real world server.

I migrated a real world server from JBOD to RAID5 by installing 2 Hard drives the same size as the primary, and initializing them as RAID5 with one disk missing. I then copied the data across, verified, remounted the filesystem, and hotadded the old primary to the new RAID5
