Ok, i have a 74GB Raptor, and since it went down a lot in price, i was considering buying another. I wanted to these 2 Raptors in a RAID setup, where both drives are exact copies of each other. I believe this is RAID 1, but if i am wrong, please correct me. My question is, once i install this second drive, and setup RAID, will it copy everything from the first drive to the second drive?

Cheers,
Nick

you need to do something called format.

if you dont want to do that, make an image with ghost, then format, setup your raid, and then copy the image back on the raided drives. you cant setup a raid when a drive has stuff on it.
