The only RAID that non-supergeek users should run is a RAID-1. Everything else is too risky / too much of a hassle.
I'd say have a non-RAID SATA install of Windows XP, and then a second SATA/PATA drive as a scratch / page volume and backup repository. Also, another drive in an external enclosure or another computer on your home network makes a smart backup choice.
