Right. My rig consists of a 120G SSD for OS and apps and a pair of 1TB HDDs set in software mirror for data security (Dynamic Disks under win 8 pro).
Both volumes are around 50% full. My case has a 2.5" hot dock built in.
Now, the first question is, should I reconfigure the dynamic disks as conventional RAID 1 or is the dynamic disks set up fine for my purpose.
The second is regarding back up stratagy. I am considering using a selection of 2.5" HDD's. Leaving one in most of the time running the win 8 "File History" utility and using the other(s) to make periodic images of my system and data volumes using the win 8 "disk image" utility. So, the second question is... Is this a reasonable strategy or should I consider doing things a different way
Cheers
