I assume you are referring to mirror drives. Technically it does, however, when many forget is events like fire. If you have a complete backup in a drive installed in the same computer as the main data and the place burns down... then what?
If the main drive simply shits the bed the raid system will seamlessly serve the data from another drive, so that is more about time lost than data lost.
