You can use the 1 TB drive as your main drive.
Then you use rsync or rsnapshot to make regularly an automatic sync to the second drive. You can also add additional data on the second drive for which you don't need backup.
Advantage of rsnapshot over rsync is, that you get a versioned backup. So you can restore previous versions of a file.
rsync comes with OMV out of the box. For rsnapshot you need to install OMV-extras first. Then you can install rsnapshot.
partitioning or running some form of hybrid raid.
What do you mean with that?

Hybrid raid was brought in by Synology in DSM 3.1, basically it creates partitions on the drive to maximise capacity and presents itself to the user as an LVM. The other advantage is you can mix and match drive sizes, could you do it using mdadm ..... possibly, but with two drives there's no redundancy.

Yes that was what I meant. But i'll try Rsync or Rsnapshot first. Looks likes a better idea.
