I Have two, 2GB drives, formatted and synced 2nd, but only shows volume_1 under Home/My Files, under Management/System Status/Volume Information/hard Drive Info - shows both drives with check in Status box. 

My questions is, can I access files on both drives or since I have RAID1 enabled, the 2nd is strictly used as a mirrored drive?

Thanks for your help.

If both drives are configured as RAID-1, then yes the HDDs are mirrored in real-time, so there's no difference between the content of HDD1 and HDD2.
