I am a newbe attempting to build a home system for photo editing and purchased two 1TB Caviar Blacks with the intention of setting up a RAID 1 for backup. However, I found out in another thread that you can't RAID the new Blacks that I own, and I can't return them, so I am seeking options.
At this point I will probably install them as two seperate drives with a SSD to house Windows 7 64.
Would it be easy to dedicate the second Black as a backup drive for the first, or should I just use both for storage and back up my files by another method? If so, what backup method would you suggest - external hard drives, DVDs, or Blu-Ray?
Thanks
