Moving RAID 0 to a single drive in the RAID. Possible?

I have a RAID 0 set up with two 1.5TB HDs. I am doing some reorganizing and want to take all the data on the RAID 0 and move it to one of the hard drives in the RAID 0 and create to single drives. Is there any way of moving all the data from a RAID 0 onto one of the HDs?

Backup your data, break up the RAID set, repartition/reformat and reload your data.

You cannot access the individual RAID drive arrays, so you'll basically need to stop using RAID.

Yup,
Time Machine for backups and Disk Utility for RAID

Since I think you mean to de-RAID the drive and leave your data sans-RAID, the answer is no.
