Can an Emachine T3306 desktop PC support a RAID system?

I want to back-up my files. If I buy another hard drive would the T3306 support the RAID back-up.

Yes and no. No it will not by default, but you can purchase a raid controller and install it.

I don't believe that Emachine model computer will support RAID natively (no RAID controllers are built on the computer's mainboard or motherboard). However, you can still use RAID. In addition to buying a hard drive, you would have to also purchase a RAID controller card to plug inside your computer. These cards usually are installed into one of the PCI slots on your computer's motherboard.
