Is there a better software raid option for Windows (Something other than built-in Disk Management) (zerobytes.monster)

Currently have a pretty beginner setup (3 4TB Drives) for my media/backup server. I am using raid 5 with these drives and setting them up using Disk Management in Windows. I started it a little over a day ago and its only at 20%. I would only assume that it will be worse once the drives are filled up and one fails so i have to rebuild. Is a better option available?

And for the people recommending mdadm on Linux, I tried that, and I just don't feel comfortable using that with my knowledge and simultaneously keeping my data safe

Any thoughts?
