Re: Okay....Raid 0 or Mirrored Drives?


raid5 is generally seen in home use, most commonly due to it being a great compromise between performance and lost space for redundancy. Aside from that parity calculation is expensive which results in it not being seen much in commercial server environments, raid10 is preferenced here for it's stronger performance and better fault tolerance.

I do like your setup though Al, make sure you set your page file on your RAID0 to further boost your performance!
