I prefer to use a "cold" mirror and keep the spare drive(s) unmounted
most of the time. This keeps usage of one mirror down and allows for
quick restores in between sync times.
I've used setups like this at home, where uptime isn't important, for
10 years or so and I've never lost data. *knock on wood*
