Wait, you're suggesting encrypting each drive separately, and then adding the result to a linux RAID device? That's.... crazy, but it might even work. Would be interesting to see what happens to performance considering you have to do a different encryption operation per drive of the RAID array. Unfortunately it looks like it's impossible to convert an existing single drive to a RAID drive.. Or at least the instructions here do the good old copy from one to the other dance. https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Convert_a_single_drive_system_to_RAID I suppose you could in theory do this for systems that are already RAID 1 though.. (as Russell suggests)
