Sounds like it's a small system, a home system? If you get new drives,
make sure they're proper raid drives, like WD Red. I've got Seagate
Barracudas, which was a mistake ...

Thank you for your response. It is my office server, but it runs on 2 1T drives (Carvair Black) Have had good experiences with them. I toss at least 1 barracuda in the trash every 3-4 months.

I'll stick with MBR and see how it goes. In that case I'll just boot the install media and assemble the arrays and see what I end up with.
