Solstice DiskSuite question

I have 5 disks in a RAID 0 (stripe/concat) configuration under Solstice
DiskSuite. One is going bad (1 hard error, soft errors clocking up 2 or 3
a day) As you can see the system isn't mirrored, so if I'm not careful
I'll have to do a full restore of all the data, tedious.

The system is under contract, so a replacement disk is arriving tomorrow.
If I format the new disk the same as the old one, don't newfs it, and dd
the data partition from failing to new, what is the chance of it working?

Thanks
