I am hoping to setup RAID1 using 2 disks. This is a UEFI computer if that matters.
The exisiting drive "/dev/sda" is partitioned like this:
Should the mirroring be done with "/dev/sda2" or "/dev/sda5"?
Also, since this is my active LL boot drive, can I convert it to RAID1 without having to format it? I have the new "mirror" disk ready to be installed, but don't want to damage my LL boot drive.
