There are at least two cases when you can benefit using one of RAID configurations. The first case is when you need to have high transfer rates: RAID 0 (gaming, video editing and so on). The second case is when you need a very stable system which can stand loose one of hard drives: RAID 1 (servers, file storage and so on).
