nain not possible indeed it is not possible

 

just used that as backup and mass storage

because you should NEVER raid 1 your system only back it up because its more usefull to have a back up of the correct data instead of copying the data into another HDD which will have the same faults as the other one(im talking about software vulnerabilities
