Wow. I didn't see that. That is really cool - just what I want it to do.
New questions (there seems to be precious little about this on the net):
I think I'm going to Mirror RAID my TV programmes, etc. disk, as protection against device failure.
1) Can I create a Mirror RAID Set using Concatenated Disk Sets as the components?
2) If I add more than two Disks (or Concatenated Disk Sets) to the RAID Set, will it do the clever stuff to give me RAID 5, or whatever? I am guessing not - it will just do multiple mirrors?
Anyone got any other interesting RAID on OSX experience?
Cheers
