Question striped raid on intel mac mini

i am currently superduping my startup disk to a striped raid. there was no option to do the guid partition that you can do without a raid that is the preferred setup for an intel mac. when my cloning is done will my backup drive boot without the guid partitioning?

Unhappy

well it created a bootable raid but superduper or some process/procedure changed it to a mirror raid where i had created it as a striped raid.

SuperDuper! definitely doesn't change the RAID format... are you sure you verified it was a striped RAID before you started?

the superduping is still going - but the speed is much faster than the first time - so i must have formatted it in the mirror mode as opposed to the stripe mode.
