Just to clarify:

What you want to do is turn your normal, single-drive system into a 
RAID-1 array by adding a drive and mirroring to it?

I'm pretty sure all RAID tools are capable of that.  I'd start by 
looking at software RAID, since your system is already up and running. 
Try googling for "software raid linux".  I'm sure other people will pipe 
up to give more info as well.

Cheers!
