Referring to "striping" and "RAID 0" as if they are separate entities  
is like referring to "water" and "H2O" in a similar fashion.  At the  
end of the day, RAID 0/striping provides NO REDUNDANCY unless you  
combine it with one of the other redundant RAID levels.  But then you  
are not running RAID 0, you'd be using RAID 0+1 or 1+0 or 0+5 or 5+0  
or....you get the picture?

There's some great info about RAID on wikipedia.  Read it, understand  
it, and you can answer your own question :)

Cheers,

James
