Can I avoid raid

[Rickie cheong]

If I plan on having more than one hard drive in my system, Is it a must to set up raid or can I avoid it

You can avoid it, if you just dont use RAID You have a JBOD.

U can have both
RAID on some disks, and non-RAID on others (if you have 3+ drives).

Basicly : RAID isn't required for second, third, fourth, etc. drive to work.
U can simply connect them, and use in IDE/AHCI mode - no problem.
