raid - Converting software RAID1 to hardware RAID1 without losing data

I have a home server running Ubuntu Jaunty and housing a 2 x 2TB RAID1 array. It is a software RAID but I'm looking to pull out those drives and put them in a external RAID enclosure to save space. My question is,


Will I be able to just "plug in" the drives and have it work, or will I have to reformat/rebuild the array?


Does anyone have experience using RAID enclosures?
