I've managed to get myself into a situation where I'll be building/managing
some windows workstations and servers.   Now, one of my personal rules
is that if you want me to maintain it, all drives must be redundant.  
On Linux, software raid works fairly well, I mean, I don't get the nice
red lights on my bad drives, but other than that, md is pretty great
for mirroring drives if you don't have a lot of money to spend.

What about windows?  Is there software RAID for windows that you can
boot off of that works well?  or do I need to buy a hardware raid 
card?  Generally, the fakeraid stuff is not used under Linux;  it's
worse than plain MD.  Does the same rule apply under windows?  

Finally, what are some good (but not too expensive) hardware raid
cards for windows use?  (Mirroring only is fine.)
