Hello, I'm setting up a server for a friend who’s using two SSDs in RAID. They mentioned VHDs and asked about the differences and challenges when mounting them for dual boot, especially with mirroring. Let me clarify the options for you.

I’m new to RAID, but I understand a VHD is a file you store and use similar to a hard drive. It has a maximum size limit. Keep partitions in mind for safety.
