You can use the 'failed disk trick' (it's in the how-to) to re-create the
array with one disk marked as 'failed'. Then you can copy the data from
the disk to the array (which will be running in degraded mode). In the
end, you raidhotadd the initially 'failed' disk back to the array.

PS: This is a bit simplified, check the how-to! If you really can't figure
it out, contact me directly...
