    or setup RAID in Disk Utility for real time byte-level mirroring of the drive...

    Depends what you want to do though.. You might want to use RAID to protect against hardware failure, or you might be better to use the second drive with backup software, to do incremental backups, so you then have a versioning system and can jump back to previous states of files (something RAID doesn't give you).
