I been using Windows 10 as Home server, so I have 2 group hardware Raid6 setup.
I would like to install TrueNAS, my question is will it see my hardware raid volume on TureNAS?
because I want to create ZFS(From group A) then copy all data from hardware Raid(From group B)
as now both raid A and B are same raid controller but, I separate it put group A to HBA card, eventually both in HBA card for ZFS.
Thanks in advance hoping my grammar was not too bad to understand my English is my first language so I speak Engl-ish not English.

I think you will need another computer to do this.

It should see the hardware part of it but not the filesystem that is on top of it. Second and mostly : NEVER user hardware raid with TrueNAS, not even in JBOD mode. For that, see this post by @jgreco.

Transfert over the network between 2 computers will be the way to migrate your data, as proposed by @Scharbag.
