Raider error

Hello, I have two same disks and I want to have Raid1. I found raider utility, which saves a lot of time.
But it makes only error for me:

raider -R1
-----------------------------------------------------------

 :: Option: Single disk to RAID 1 (MIRRORING)

 :: Distro name and version: Arch Linux
 :: Distro edition: Arch Linux

 :: Advice: You may use raider on it!
-----------------------------------------------------------

LSBLK:

sda      8:0    0 149.1G  0 disk
└─sda1   8:1    0 149.1G  0 part /
sdb      8:16   0 149.1G  0 disk
└─sdb1   8:17   0 149.1G  0 part

I have UEFI Motherboard, but its switched to CSM, so it doesnt use EFI.

 :: Unknown bootloader

Bootloaders supported:
----------------------
- Grub legacy
- Grub 2
- LILO (Only tested in Slackware and Vector Linux).

What bootloader are you using ?

Disliking systemd intensely, but not satisfied with alternatives so focusing on taming systemd.

(A works at time B)  && (time C > time B ) ≠  (A works at time C)
