?? DonaldDriver ??
If you mirror your boot drive, do VI's and any other authorization keys get copied to the mirroed drive? If yes, what software or app do you use to create the boot disk mirror on the 2nd drive?
Thanks

Donald,I just cloned my drive using Super duper and when i started up off of it my native instruments stuff wasn't authorized. Is there another way to clone a drive that would all all my stuff to work without having that drive authorized?

No way. Most plugs use the hard drive as part of their authorization scheme. Maybe a clone to another partition on the same drive would work, but the mirror on a separate drive sure won't.
