Moving raid to different machine

With a mail spooler going down yesterday, I'm faced with a small
problem. The machine, running RH7.3, had a raid consisting of 2 SCSI
drives that were striped together (software raid.) Is there some way I
can pull these drives out with their controller, stick them in a
different machine, get the raid going, and be able to pull the data
off? If so, how? I don't know if there are certain files I need, but
on backup I have /etc but no /boot (which is where grub lived in those
days.)
The raidtab as it was looks like this:
raiddev /dev/md0
raid-level 0
nr-raid-disks 2
chunk-size 64k
persistent-superblock 1
nr-spare-disks 0
device /dev/sda1
raid-disk 0
device /dev/sdc1
raid-disk 1
