Home premium doesn't support software mirroring so you'd have to set it up by using a raid controller, to use the onboard one if your motherboard has one you need to do a registry hack of windows and convince it to install raid drivers before you change the BIOS or the system won't boot. It's a bit involved and hardly worth it - you can always set windows backup to copy one disk to the other on a regular basis for backup reasons, RAID really isn't necessary in a home enviroment. I looked into RAID for a while, but honestly it adds more complexity and is not that useful for most people. In the corporate world where servers need 100% uptime RAID has a purpose, at home you are better served by backing up to an external hard drive than running a mirror. Some people like striping for the performance, but that's a different discusion. |
