After adding new HDD: Howto setup RAID / mirroring?

[coolex]

Hello

I've added a second HDD to my NAS (FreeNAS 9.2.1) today. Now I would like to setup something like RAID1 or similar mirroring tasks to have my data redundand (UFS, no hardware RAID). Unfortunately I couldn't find any way to do it on the GUI of FreeNAS.
Should I reinstall FreeNAS to setup Raid1? If so, what happens to my data?

Thanks for advice.

This should be in the documentation.. Backup all your data.. Kill your existing pools etc.. Create a mirror.. http://doc.freenas.org/index.php/Main_Page

I already checked the documentation but most information is about mirroring with ZFS. The only hint I found is the following:

Supported volumes are UFS stripes (RAID0), UFS mirrors (RAID1), UFS RAID3, as well as existing ZFS pools.

But I couldn't find any information on how to setup mirroring/Raid1 for UFS volumes.

read the chapter on the volume managers...

Hint: UFS support is discontinued as well as x86 support. So you're really setting up a configuration that is already obsolete.

Thanks for the hint.
I guess I can build a workaround with rsync.
