If money is an issue, buy a server with an integrated RAID controller.
Performance may not be the same as a RAID controller with huge cache, but
you still get the advantage of hot swap, and no OS overhead.

Touch� (hope I've spelt that right !).

All my servers are built on a RAID1 (mirrored pair) for the OS and APPs with
a RAID5 setup of at least three disks for the data ... ideal if money isn't
a problem !
