Definitely doable to set up a software raid, though that will be after the install. The top SATA port is also port multiplier capable, so you could run a cable off that to an array box if you wanted. You need to use either the top SATA port or USB 2.0 port to boot the operating system, but the rest is up to you.

Thank you. Also, how large of a boot drive do I need. I'm going to use a MicroSD card via the USB2.0 port on top for the OS and packages (Samba, CUPS, MiniDLNA, Time Machine). I have an 8GB card and also a 2GB card. If I can fit it all on the 2GB, then great. All my actual data (movies, pictures, etc) will be on another external HD.

Is the 2GB enough or do I need to use the 8GB? Thanks!

2GB is plenty.
