You mean on the CD-ROMs?  No.

Yes.

There are two mirroring products available for FreeBSD: ccd and
vinum.  Vinum is newer and offers more functionality (including
RAID-5, but this version is not currently being distributed).  Check
ccd(4), ccdconfig(8), cinum(4) and vinum(8).  Vinum is only on 3.0.
If you're using 2.x, check http://www.lemis.com/vinum.html for more
details about Vinum.
