Mac Mini Server (Late 2012) RAID Question

I believe they are shipped as standard drives with no Raid at all. You would need to set them up if you want it.

Anyone know how the Mac Mini Server is set up from the factory if you get the 2 drive option? Is it configured as RAID 0 or RAID 1?

Wanting to get the 2x256 SSD option. I want to know if I can have the second SSD set up just to keep all of my media on it. I am thinking I should be able to do this the way it is shipped out. Anyone know for certain?

Thanks!

Definetly not RAID 0 on the two HDD option when I bought a server. I can't see them striping the SSDs either. You can't run a recovery partition on a RAID 0 set up from my experience from memory last time I did that, so I don't think they give you that factory setup.

Two SSDs is mighty expensive as a factory option? You haven't thought about buying your own two SSDs and installing them?
