Hey Ray,
As far as I'm aware you should be able to Software RAID with no issues
as you were previously.
Another option you might like to consider is using Time Machine to
backup and also giving you history as you may require.
Just a suggestion. :)
Thanks,

I am currently running MacOS 10.4.11 (Tiger) on my G5 Mac. With two
hard disks installed I am able to run them as a mirrored RAID set.
This gives me a form of internal backup in case of hard disk failure.
I am considering updating to MacOS 10.6 (Snow Leopard), and a
current MacPro, the one with the Nehalem processor. Does anyone know
if Disk Utility will still allow me to set up a mirrored RAID set on
such a MacPro, assuming I fit two identical hard drives. Note that I
am NOT planning to get the A$1000 plus raid card for the MacPro.
