Best Answer

Hardware raid is supported by hardware and usually more stable and achieve better performance. Software raid does not need raid hardware support and can be used on machines without raid options. In the same time stability and performance of software raid is not as high as hardware.

Software raid is usually recommended for low budget machines (it's a part of many linux-based system, and it's free of charge) if you are not able to afford a good hardware raid.
