Hi list!

I have a server with two 80GB 7200RPM IDE hard drive disks.
Is it possible to have a software mirror RAID1 runing with FreeBSD? I mean a
full disk mirror (inlcuding system files and so on). So if i have a big
problem in one disk, everything runs the same, with minimum human
intervention... Is there a tool can wich i accomplish this? CCD? Vinum?
What would be the trade-offs in access disk speed, cpu load, etc...

Any tought would be welcome.


Best regards
