Well, if the box has true RAID hardware support you're right, but remember 4500 and GuardianOS have a Software RAID support.
What happens to the system when the OS is corrupted or have a total replacement of all of disks drives? (That's my case) and the manufacturer (Adaptec) says:

The Snap server is a sealed unit, if the operating system was removed

Please provide the required contact name, email, phone number and
shipping address for an RMA to be generated.
You will need to ship the Snap server to the address that will be
provided when the RMA is generated.
We can only perform a standard RMA on this Snap server; we cannot
advance ship a server before receiving the old server.
