Hello,
I have a quick question that I can't answer myself and wanted some suggestions.
I have 2 Western Digital 1Tb drives, would it make sense to put them in a raid 1 or just have 1 drive in the computer and 1 drive for external backup(puting it in an external enclosure and automatically backing up through Vista or another program). If I use the drives in raid 1 then I would have to purchase at least another 1 tb external drive or external hdd and put in another enclosure for backups.
To me it probably would make sense to have 1 drive inside and 1 external that way if something happens to the computer(lightning strike or whatever) the external should still be good with my backup.
I probably answered my own questions but suggestions are more than welcome
Thanks.
