Ultimately, it depends on monitoring.  If you have a mechanism that  
will alert you to a fault then mirroring is fine.  If you do not then  
you're probably better off keeping things as they are and using a  
chunk of the 1TB disk for regular, automated backups that do notify  
you if there is a fault.
