Mirroring will _not_ protect your files from deletion, corruption or anything besides disk failure. RAID is interesting if slimserver is a timely critical application for you, where you can't afford an interruption of a few hours. Otherwise it's waste of money and unneeded complexity. Go with a single internal disk and an external disk for manual backups.
