This may be a banal question but I am a newbie with no experience of raid

My friend has a pc with two 300GB discs configured as a Raid 0 array -
partioned into C: and D:
He would like to add a third hard disc and still keep the original two disc
array - Is this possible
If not he is considering the following:
Back up the raid array to an external HDD
Remove the raid driver
Restore the back up to C: and D: Drives
Then install the third HDD
If the back up was taken with a disk imaging program, such as Acronis, would
it restore 'correctly' ?
Regards & TIA
