I'm not familiar with the product, but does it support RAID formatting other than "0"? If so, I would use that.

If that's not an option, I would go for scheduled backups and set them to run at 1 AM or sometime when you are not around. I think having a mirrored scheme will take resources from your computer that you will want for rendering or more playback horse power.

Absolute worst case scenario is you will lose 1 day's worth of work.
