I currently have a Seagate Barracuda 3TB, the one with a monstrously high failure rate. If i bought another 3TB drive from another manufacturer can i still create a RAID1 array?

Also is it possible to create a RAID1 array without any data loss on the existing drive? Want a bit of redundancy if the Seagate drive fails, which scares me a lot as i have about 1.5TB of videos, music and games on it.
