disksuite and raidctl used together

I have a live Sunfire v440 server with 4 drives and I want to mirror drive 0 & 1 to 2 & 3. The on-board raid controller only allows for 1 live mirror. I was thinking of disksuite, but unfortunately the second disk is just one large partition with no free slices.

I was thinking of using raidctl to mirror the second disk and disksuite to mirror the root drive.

Has anyone done that and if so, did they encounter any problems?

Thank you
