Yes you will be able to move over to new hardware without losing any of your data or settings. Many users on here, including myself have done motherboard swap outs with little to no after effects. What is most important is you document your drive setup so that when you migrate to the new setup you select the same drive as your current parity drive. You may have to do a 'new config' but after that the array should start and everything should be back to normal. There can me minor hiccups when do this as your new board may have a few new features your old board doesn't etc, but if you run into any trouble many people here have experience with this sort of hardware swap and can help.
