How do i configure RAID 1 on 2 identical HDD's which are SATA.
1 HDD has windows XP while the other HDD is to be mirrored.
The 2 hard disks are identical in the sense that they are of samecapacity.

I would like to know the requirements of the 2 HDD's if raid 1 has to be a successful thing.

there is no special requirements for 2 hds, the only thing they must have the same capacity. in biios you choose an option of raid 1, and controller would make all job itself.

Did you get any further with raid 1 ? The reason I ask i am now looking at this area at the moment and wondered if you had any tips ?
