Can I software RAID 1 two external (USB) hard drives?

Hi,

I can't afford an external housing with built in RAID, so will
accept software based RAID.

I have an external housing, connected by USB, containing two identical
hard drives.

Can I make them appear as one, by using RAID 1 (mirror) in software?

If so, how?

Thanks in advance for any help.
