The Windows operating system will show an alert on the screen in case of a failure but you can continue working with the operating files, making raid 1 an optimized and uncomplicated option.
In the background, the operating system will continue to boot from the other working disks and copy the data on them to ensure nothing is lost. Since all the blocks in raid 1 are mirrored, if one drive gets corrupted, the next thing you know is data on all the drives are corrupted. The mirroring system in a raid 1 cannot be an alternative for a backup. Ultimately, a backup is crucial before setting up new disks in the Windows system. In case a drive fails, the other drives still perform the read and write functions and business continuity is not compromised with.
As soon as the new one is installed in the array, the information will be reconstructed in the raid 1 stack itself. Though large scale enterprises where roadblocks in important tasks cannot function with the time taken to swap disks.
If speed is a vital feature for your business then it is important to note that if you are using the disks of dissimilar natures to configure in the same stack, the speed of the fastest disks will be set to the speed of the slowest one, for it to complete its read and write functions which makes slower than raid 0.
The process of mirroring reduces the storage space into half, which makes setting up raid 1 more expensive than the raid 0 if additional storage space is a chief component to your business.
It is prime to make sure to use a suitable option according to your business needs.

A RAID 1 setup protects data from a drive failure by simultaneously writing data to two hard drives a master drive and a backup or mirror drive. Since the second drive carries an exact copy of the first, it provides no usable storage capacity.
RAID 1 offers no gain in drive performance. I have w upload ork with different Raids. I only work with them in server with different company I go work for.
I be using Window XP on this guide. NOTE: Some motherboard has a bulit in raid. If you have the option Raid Mode. Than you don't have to spent money on a raid card. Windows installation won't install the drivers from an optical drive.
You need to purchase one that support Raid 1. Make sure you have at least one pci slot or if you have pci-e slot you can use it. Make sure what you buying. Make sure you have two sata cable. When purchase raid controller it come with a floppy disk or cd. If it came with cd. You must copy the files from the cd to the root of the floppy disk. Install the raid controller into the pci slot or pci-e slot.
Connect the sata cable ends to the two sata port of the raid controller. The other ends go to the two hard drives you going to install.
