Default Can I make two hard drives of it

I bought a Dell desktop computer three weeks ago.
The hard drive is 1TB (2x500GB) Serial ATA Raid 0 Stripe (7200RPM) Dual HDD.

That is how it's worded on my recite slip. I bought it thinking it was two separate drives, with a drive icon for each drive, I now know different.

I have not taken the side off yet, not much use yet, as I am not use to Sata drives.
Looking at the booklet I received with it, under raid support it says
Raid o Striping
Raid 1 Mirroring.

It looks as If I have a few PCI slots. Is it possible for me to pull out the sata connectors as they are connected now and plug them into two separate sata connectors, so I have two hard drives.
Thanks Ralph.
