Yes, thanks.

Do you know if a firewire drive will work reliably as a raid1 mirror 
with a matching internal drive?  With the older stack it isn't 
recognized in time at boot-up to automatically connect the md device. 
You can add it and the re-sync generally works if the partition is not 
too busy, but it tends to be failed out of the array if it is left 
connected when the partition is very active.
