Is it possible to create an external firewire 2 drive mirror (say with the Mac Mini, which has only 1 firewire port that I can bridge from one enclosure to the next)?

What I did was buy 2 of the exact same hard drive then used Disk Tools to create the RAID.
- The volumes must be identicle in size
- You cannot mirror the internal hard drive
I also moved my home directory to the RAID but that is another tip.
