I'd be really tempted to talk to the person asking you to do this, and ask them what they hope to achieve... > I can almost envision times it would be useful. i.e. disk speed is unimportand, disk data rarely changes, but when it does it is very important, and traditional backups are not feasible for some unknown reason? By having the data written to 2 different places on the disk, the likelyhood of a failure making it truly unrecoverable is extremely small. ie. If you have disk media problems, likely only one location of the other will be affected. If you have a drive electronics failure, you can ship the drive off to have recovery performed. (Over $1000 I know, but if the data is important.)
