From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I use openmediavault for my home NAS, it does all the heavy lifting for you with a nice GUI so you don't have to config everything yourself. I'd recommend checking it if you don't have a lot of experience with RAID setups or don't want to do manually.
Just please remember that RAID is not a backup solution, it's a redundancy solution. If you have data corruption on one side, it can copy itself to the other mirror and then you're screwed. If your media is important, keep a proper separate backup.
