Moving existing RAID1 HDD's to a new PR2100 from a damaged PR2100

Hello my previous PR2100 got damaged and won’t turn on, my friend has a PR2100 and offered that i can use it so i can retrieve my files, is it possible to just plug in my 2x4TB RAID1 HDD’s to another PR2100? any special procedure to be aware of to prevent loss of data? Thank you.

Thanks for the feedback, and one more thing as i prepare for this procedure, do i need the enclosure to be off when i pull out or slot in the drives then turn it on or i can do it while the enclosure is on? Thanks again.
