Windows also has software RAID (at least 0 and 1 maybe others). I
have no idea how good or bad it might be but it probably works fine.
I also haven't actually used it so don't ask me for advice. You can't
use it on your system partition though.
One minor correction. You can setup a mirror of your system drive. If
you are running Windows NT server, Windows 2000 Server (any of them), or
Windows 2003 server you can do a stripe set with parity. I'm not sure
what level of RAID that is though. It's at least 3 drives of the same
size & if one dies you are ok as long as you replace the dead drive
before another one dies. All versions of the NT kernel support the
following Mirror set, Stripe set, & Disk set. (I'm not sure about XP
Home or XP Media Center edition, as Home is missing a bunch of features
in Pro & Media Center is somewhere in between the other two versions.)
A Mirror set is when one drive is an exact copy of another drive, a
Stripe set is two or more drives of the same size & data is written to
all drives in the set at the same time, a Disk set is two or more drives
where the size doesn't matter & data is written to one drive till it is
filled up.
