RAID-1 isn't a backup strategy, it's a way to survive a disk failure. Cycling through drives is also asking for trouble and for more load with RAID-1, as macOS lacks any way to optimize how much data gets copied. It's always full copies and not incremental copies, it's also using arcane to create and re-create commands and it's (by default) a manual process to perform the clones, and it's quite possible to end up aiming the copy source and the copy target at the wrong storage devices. Whoops.
RAID-1 is also a way for a lurking corruption or a deletion to propagate throughout all the backups.
There's also only as much "depth" to a RAID-1 backup scheme as you have disks in your backup pool.
Use Time Machine and a big Time Machine disk. It's built in software, it's restorable, it's automatic, and it's largely transparent, and it's something that you and other folks can help with questions and such. And it has as much depth to your backups as you have storage on your Time Machine Target disk, and it avoids duplicate files on the backups.
If you're out of internal storage on your internal storage device, configure a ThunderBolt or USB-C/USB3 external storage or external hardware RAID array, and use a separate Time Machine backup target storage configured to record the internal storage and the external RAID array. Or create and use multiple partitions on the RAID array, if you're using mid- to upper-end RAID hardware.
If you're particularly paranoid about the data, configure multiple Time Machine targets (across separate disks and/or separate RAID arrays) or separate Time Capsule devices scattered around, and disconnect and rotate the directly-connected Time Machine backups. Those'll automatically re-synch for you too, unlike the RAID-1 array members that'll require the full copies to resynchronize the contents. Or upload the source files and the finished files to a cloud provider and distribute from there. Or a combination of these.
If you really want to go with clones, maybe Carbon Copy Cloner and set that to create clones for off-site or otherwise.
But I'd not use RAID-1 as a backup strategy here. Software RAID-1? That's centrally intended to allow your system to survive the failure of storage device. Not backups.
ps: Yeah. I've used RAID-1 the way that you're considering. On systems with what I'd consider far more robust RAID-1 software support, too. For the vast number of environments, Time Machine is far superior.
