How safe is software RAID compared to how safe hardware RAID is!?

Hi folks..

hopefully everything will be working soon and i can get on with trying to
get some backup scripts working :)

I am going to stick with this software RAID for the near future if it
carries on working correctly.. I was just wondering what peoples views were
of software vs hardware raid... anything and everything really.. I'm not
that up on all the technology... I know that 3ware have a good rep in
hardware... I also imagine that for more exotic RAID configurations its
obviously a help to not stress the CPU with the RAID tasks.. for me tho with
simple mirroring the CPU costs are minimal.. the linux core is a sturdy base
to build upon so is software raid in this way a perfectly acceptible
reliable RAID solution..

Just curious..

Thanks for everyones help

Jim
