Hello datahoarders !

I'm looking for advices. I have 2 similar HDD :

1 HDD with data (archives)
1 HDD without data

I wish to use the second disk as a security back-up in case of disk failure. My first though was to try a RAID 1 : 2 mirrored disks. But as I undestand it I would need to wipe the 1st disk. I also read Raid 1 is may be not ideal for what I want to achieve.

I don't have a NAS and I'm on Windows 11.

Do you guys have some inputs or solutions for me ?

Thanks for the help.
