I assume you are thinking of RAID 1 for the redundancy since you are
likely to lose the entire IDE channel and possibly the chipset if you
have a drive failure.

Consider what your recovery plan is with a software raid. If you lose
your primary drive, you won't be able to boot from the array. So now you
are on some other boot media and needing to repair the array.

Actually, with Linux software RAID-1 you can make sure that the boot information is contained on both drives. You *are* able to boot off of the RAID-1 array should (or rather, when) a drive failure happen(s).

See: http://willert.dk/geek/raid.html

With this setup, you just need to monitor for the drive failure. Pretty darn cool IMO.
