I just bought 2 1TB drives. I am looking to make them identical so that if I lose one I could just swap the other one in. Is there a way to do that? I do not need my backup to be able to "roll back" to a previous version, I simply want something to backup all of my important files.

Would I be thinking RAID or not? I've never used RAID before, but am more than willing to learn how to!

Thanks for your help!

any tips? RAID or not to RAID? I could simply use the WD backup tool I guess

thanks! Is that different than the WD version of Acronis?

Same idea, if the HDDs are the WD brand I would use the specific Acronis WD Edition software for it`s support.
