This only works if the new disk is identical to the old one, geometry-wise.
Otherwise you can simply create partitions of the same size using parted, on
the new drive.

Any suggestions for converting mp4 files to VOB?
Even an example with mencoder might be useful.
Long long ago, I used mencoder for making DVD video files.
Lost track of the script I used.
I tried it again recently,

Assuming the new disk hasn't been used, that step is probably unnecessary.

That looks wrong, it should probably be 'grub2-install /dev/sdd'.

I've always noticed that about raid in general. Thousands of internet
pages telling you how redundant arrays protect you from disk failures
and
I recently had to replace a bad disk in raid1 array and finding proper
docs was not a good experience.
