It depends greatly on what kind of machine you are running. Many PC's have RAID capabilities built into their BIOS. Others will need special RAID software, which will vary by OS. Finally you can buy the multidisk raid enclosures, which may either have their own raid capabilities on the hardware or may use a software solution to go with the hardware.
