That depends. Software raid is fine for raid1 and raid0. If you want raid5 or raid6, you have to use hardware raid with bbu cache that matches the size of the array notwithstanding the limiting to 10 disks max. consideration.
cpu performance/amount of RAM available is a non-issue and has been for a decade.
