This is my 1st purchase of an SSD and I just bought a 240 gig Mushkin Enhanced Chronos Deluxe SSD
Mushkin Enhanced Chronos Deluxe MKNSSDCR240GB-DX 2...
And two Seagate Barracuda 7200 3 TB 7200RPM SATA 6 Gb/s NCQ 64MB Cache

In the system now I have a 500 gig seagate as my OS drive and programs
http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Seagate...bolsp-app05-53?id=1172880157923&skuId=8294632
also a seagate 1 terabyte drive used for storage.
So I want to clone my seagate 500 gig to my Mushkin ssd. There is only 120 gig used on it so it will fit on the SSD. What software do you recommend for cloning?
I was thinking Macrium Reflect - free edition shown here at about 5 mins in http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=duW_jYVCYEg&list=FLvetSfG0RzGAY49dHzdSvTw&index=2&feature=plpp_video
Now the 3 terra drives I want them to mirror each other so if one dies hopefully the other will be OK. So is there a good software solution for this or is something like RAID 1 going to be the best route to go? But maybe a software solution would be better than the chance of a failure with RAID?
Not sure what to do with the 500 gig and the 1 terra seagate drives - maybe can go into another pc or something.
Thanks in advance for any advice or insight on how I should set my new storage devices up.
