Right. No need for LVM if you just want to mirror the drives.
LVM has some nice things that you may or may not need like: resizing logical
volumes, create lg's from volume groups that span multiple disks, create
snapshots etc. And of course, there's the management overhead (you need to
understand the concepts) and the comands if you need to recover your
setup ..but for LVM there's a nice GUI that can help you manage it.
