That's true, although in the Linux world I expect that the number of
software RAID users far outnumbers the hardware RAID users. Unlike the
pseudo-RAID that Windows usually offers, Linux software RAID is proper
RAID with performance comparable to all but the most expensive hardware
setups.
With hardware RAID, removing and reading a disk wouldn't work for this,
just as it wouldn't for software RAID using whole disks. However, using
whole disk with RAID5 is unlikely unless you have another disk too,
otherwise you wouldn't be able to load the kernel.
