I have found the following and see that you can convert from raid4 to
raid0 fairly easy

i have a 2 disk raid5 and want to be able to convert this to raid0, i
was thinking of adding a extra 2 disk and setting them up as raid0,
moving the data over then adding the original raid5 disks to the raid0
setup, but i see that you are unable to add disk to a raid0 setup,
would it be possible to setup a raid4 with 2 disks and 1 missing, move
the data from the raid5 to raid4 then add both of the original disks
to the raid4 the downgrade this to raid0???
