current setup:
ASUS M2N-SLI Deluxe AM2 motherboard
HD501LJ Samsung 500GB 7200RPM 16Mb cache
I'd like to go RAID 1 as I have some very important files that I'd hate to lose. The HD501LJ model is no longer made due to many unexpected HD deaths.
Should I purchase the new HD502LJ (same specs) or go with another drive?
The WD 500GB 7200RPM 16Mb cache WD5000AAKS has my eye.
Is it possible to RAID 1 a 500 GB 7200RPM Samsung drive and a 500 GB 7200RPM Western Digital drive?
