Hi,

I have a WD My Book Pro Edition II external enclosure (2 drives
inside) and I'm trying to put it in RAID1 mode on OBSD 5.4.

This is the enclosure:
http://support.wd.com/product/install.asp?groupid=104&lang=en

It supports RAID0 and RAID1.
On Windows it is possible to switch between those with WD's software.
No matter what you select though, OBSD always detects it as a RAID0:

umass0 at uhub0 port 1 configuration 1 interface 0 "Western Digital My
Book" rev 2.00/1.08 addr 2
umass0: using SCSI over Bulk-Only
scsibus1 at umass0: 2 targets, initiator 0
ses0 at scsibus1 targ 1 lun 0: <WD, My Book Device, 108a> SCSI2
13/enclosure services fixed
ses0: unable to read enclosure configuration
sd2 at scsibus1 targ 1 lun 1: <WD, My Book, 108a> SCSI2 0/direct fixed
sd2: 476936MB, 512 bytes/sector, 976764928 sectors
"Western Digital My Book" rev 2.00/1.08 addr 2 at uhub0 port 1
configuration 1 not configured

/ # disklabel sd2
# /dev/rsd2c:
type: SCSI
disk: SCSI disk
label: My Book
duid: 52fa8b8b688d81e0
flags:
bytes/sector: 512
sectors/track: 63
tracks/cylinder: 255
sectors/cylinder: 16065
cylinders: 60800
total sectors: 976764928
boundstart: 64
boundend: 976752000
drivedata: 0

Is it possible to use it as RAID1 and if so - how?

Best regards,
Nikola Gyurov
