Adding 2nd HDD want Raid 1

[ppurcell]

Hi all

Brought a N2100 (2,1.0.9 firmware). Installed 1 x 500GB Seagate 32M and all works OK.

2 Week later
Now want to a 2nd HDD (500GB Seagate 32M) and setup Raid 1 (Mirror). I have put in the 2nd HDD, but only get JBOD option. Raid 1 Option grayed out. Any ideas ? HDDs are identical

Have access to back up the 230GB on the first HDD to a PC so I can go back to basics if need be.

Cheers Purcell

I can't be sure, but it seems like I recall something about having to set it up as raid from the beginning. Since you have both disks, you might want to try rebuilding it from scratch. And now's a good time, since you have the space to back the current drive. It's odd that you can't start a raid with one disk, but then you can take one away after it's made.

Of course, I could be wrong.
