I currently have a hardware RAID5 array, using the Intel Matrix RAID capability onboard, encrypted with GELI. I need to add 2 new discs to the array. If I add a disc to the array and have it rebuilt with the Intel Matrix Storage Manager, prior to booting FreeBSD will that destroy the encrypted data? If so, how can I decrypt the disk without copying the data to another partition? Please let me know if you need any other info.
