Hi,
I want to get to external hdd and set them up as a mirror so when i add
files to one of them they will automatically be replicated to the other. Can
i do this under win vista 32bit? Ive looked and computer management but the
help doesnt not mention anything about it.

Greatful for any help

Thanks in advance.

Well you might want to look at Synctoy and see if that might be a simple
way to do what you want.

Short answer - no.

Long answer - even if this was possible it would be a really bad idea. I'm
assuming the external drive is USB. That would be a recipe for disk
corruption if it was possible. Look at Charlie's post about Synctoy. It
isn't real time but may be what you are looking for. You could also use
robocopy and scheduled tasks.
