Within the Disk Management tool right click on the unallocated space in the graphical view of the first disk to be used in the mirror set and select ''New Mirrored Volume...'' to invoke the ''New Striped Volume'' wizard. Click ''Next'' on the welcome screen to proceed to the disk selection screen. As mentioned previously, a mirrored set must be comprised of two disk drives. Initially, the wizard only lists the currently selected disk in the ''Selected'' column. In order to proceed, one more disk is required. To add a disk to the mirrored set, select a suitable disk from the available disks in the right left hand column and click on ''Add'' to add it to the selected disks list:

With the necessary disks selected click ''Next'' to proceed and assign a drive letter or mount point for the volume. The ''Next'' button will then proceed to the ''Format Volume'' screen where the file system type and compression options may be selected. To view the summary screen, press the ''Next'' button. Assuming the summary is acceptable the ''Finish'' button will format the volumes and create the striped mirrored volume ready for use.
