Temprarily Disable RAID 5 Array WITHOUT breaking it

    I'm currently having ram issues with my rig thats only been built a few weeks. Every so often it gets a random BSOD to do with "memory management", and it also has trouble passing memtest86 on cold boot. Can bench and memtest for hours on end when warm but wont do much on the first boot of the day. Its usually not a problem because its an i7-870 and nothing stresses it enough to cause issues.

    That issue is most likely faulty ram sticks from what ive read so far, but until I get that sorted I want to disable my raid 5 array for safety. I dont want to have to spend a day filling that up again. Also every time I get a BSOD the array has to be reinitialised/verified and that takes 6-7 hours.

    Is my best plan to disable RAID in the bios or just plug out all the drives and hope for the best?

    Anybody who's heard of that ram issue on an ASUS P7P55D Evo feel free to jump in too, thanks

    Edit - By the way ram is Corsair XMS3 1600mhz CL9 (I think)
