It all depends on what is it for.
Put your /,/boot,swap,/usr on one drive.

If you have to serve a ton of users, put 2 scsi channels and hang one
pair of disks on each. If speed is critical, make a raid each. If not,
let the drives be independent so transactions can overlap and I thing
the box will feel more responsive to each user.
