I expect he's talking about using software mirroring for his OS disk, 
which would most easily be set up during installation.  Most seem to 
discourage recording to ones OS disk.  Besides which, mirrors are fine 
for recordings, if you're OK with the lack of space.  We tell people not 
to bother striping or spanning multiple disks to make one large 
partition to record to.
