Mirroring and RAID 5 go back to Windows NT 3.1 Advanced Server in 1993:

The main source of confusion about current support for this feature is
that the desktop/workstation version of Windows don't have it. For
Windows XP, you need the XP Professional version to get "dynamic disk"
support; it's not in the home edition.
