Yes vortexbox can do raid. Just setup linux software raid, it works very well. I'm doing it on my system right now. I did it because I had several disks and wanted them all to appear as one volume, the raid does that very well.
I explicitly went with linux software raid rather than a hardware solution for a couple reasons: its been around for a while and will probably stay around for a long time. Because its software built into almost all linux distributions I can easily transfer the setup from one hardware system to another without worrying about the new one having a compatible raid controller. I've ported the system over to a new computer last year and it worked perfectly, the new system just worked with the "raided" disks, I didn't have to do one bit of setup for it. I setup the raid system originally on an old debian system, but it works perfectly on vortexbox as well.
