Dead USB key and restoring from a backup after replacing the key

Hello,

 

Today, in the middle of troubleshooting my USB controller not resetting properly (that error 127 thing), my flash drive died. Most of the files on it are missing and corrupted. Chkdsk corrected a few things, but things still look the same.

 

I have a backup of the flash drive on my array (lesson learned there) which obviously I couldn't get to when creating a new bootable flash drive. I had to replace to old key.

 

Since I got to my backups with starting the array with correct disk assignments, my question is if I could just copy over all the files (except the old key) from the backup to the new flash device (or whatever the correct way of doing would be). Would that work without me having to redo all the settings over again?

 

Thank you
