Windows 10: Moving Software Mirrored Drives To New PC

I have 2 drives that were using windows mirroring (Under Disk Management) in my old PC.

I've moved them to my new PC, but made a mistake.
I'm only running Windows 10 Home instead of Pro.
So when I imported foreign disks they came in as 2 separate disks instead of 1.

I've ordered Windows 10 Pro and plan on upgrading, but am unsure if I can re-import the disks so they appear as 1 since I already imported them.

Any suggestions?

Worse case I can probably reformat one of the drives, but I'm not sure if I can start a new mirror with a drive that already has data (and I really don't want to lose the data).

usb hard drive

i install a new flash drive usb used the client software and mirrored my hard drive but now i can not get the computer to boot from the new drive

 

get windows 10 and disk mirroring

So it's been over a year since this thread was started and I've searched the web for Windows 10 and disk mirroring, yet still find nothing, except this link.

Is it happening or not? I just bought a new desktop with Win 10 Home OEM and moved my mirrored WD2000FYYZ hard drives to the new computer and it won't recognize them. They are active, online, dynamic, mirrored but marked "failed".

I added 2 brand new similar hard drives and disk mirroring (in Disk Management) is not an option, under any circumstance (mbr, gpt, aol, ibm, tandy...) ;-) I make a joke of this but it's really not funny. I had this ability with my Windows 7, but not
the new and improved 10. Argh....

 

You could put them back in the old pc and break the mirror first (if the new pc already sees them as separate drives, then all you will have to do is to recreate the mirror when you upgrade your OS). This will give two disks with the same data on it. Then you can move one of them or both of them to the new pc and start a new mirror.

 

If it's a software RAID then there shouldn't be any issues simply moving the drives over, even if it were a hardware RAID, a mirror RAID is pretty forgiving and shouldn't break. You can break the mirror as suggested by play2mefish it won't harm anything since the drives are identical data.
