You are right. Hardware is best.

Anyway the configuration is here if anyone wants:

# sysctl kern.geom.debugflags=16
# gmirror label -v -b round-robin gm0 /dev/da0
# echo geom_mirror_load="YES" > /boot/loader.conf

Next in /etc/fstab change everything that has "da0" to "/mirror/gm0"
like "/dev/da0s1a" to "/dev/mirror/gm0s1a"

Next: reboot

# gmirror insert gm0 /dev/da1

# gmirror status
... and see the raid syncronization ;-)
