Today I’m going to to show you guys on how to setup software RAID on CentOS. This technique is an alternative instead of getting the expensive RAID card for your server. Though I had to warn you, getting software RAID means its involving a few manual approach and the usage of command lines instead. But nevertheless, software RAID is reliable and also will save a lot of cost
You can follow the whole normal installation process of CentOS that I have wrote earlier here:

Please make sure before this installation, you will need 2 identical hard disk with same space connected to the server. But the truth is, you don’t need to same hard disk with the same space amount, but as long as you partitioned the space equally then it would be good as well. But for beginner, it is better to get a hard disk that got the same space quantity, less percentage that you would get yourself confused.
