For a software raid veteran that might a good solution but.... A HP hardware RAID controller is build to make it easy on the users. Automatic failover AND fall back when a hot spare is present> The controller understands when a new disk is placed after a failure and updates the RAID array all by itself. A software RAID solution is a lot more maintenance and should be considered a last option. But... It might be the last option for S0lid if he cannot get a driver for the controller.
