If there is a spare sata connector simply plug it in and format it in disk
management

You cannot simply 'un raid' for want of a better word, raid 0 (striped
disks). The file information is spread across both drives. You have in
effect a single 600gb drive, the fact that it has been partitioned is
immaterial.
There is no redundancy in raid 0, one hd fails you lose the lot (all
files/data)
