raid - how

[greg]

Hi

I have a regular desktop workstation
with pci slots etc
I want to buy raid 1 hard drive system with mirrored disks (redundant as i
understand)
What do I need to buy?

I have a generic Intel pc D845BG motherboard
with 2 ide hard drives (one died yesterday
and 6 pci extention slots

What is the total configuration i.e. what pieces I need to buy (least
expensive)

Thanks
GSL

Buy 2 similar drives (identical is preferred) and 1 PCI IDE RAID adapter.
