I know about vinum but I don't really like the complexity it brings to the game... What I'm looking for is simple: a driver/device that takes two identical disks and simply copies every write to the device to both of the drives so I always have identical copies of the drive. Balancing of reads would be nice, but not ultimately needed. The reason why I'm looking for something like this are simple: the cheap IDE RAID stuff (be it Promise Fastrak or Highpoint) is simply crap. Have one disk fail and BSD does whatever it likes (aside from continue to run)...
