That's almost right.

You have 0 and 1 confused. 0 is striping... so you want 2 Drives Raid 1
for OS/Programs ... that gives you fault tollerance.

Raid 0 gives you back your speed in the 4 drive 0+1 setup.

Hope this helps,

| 
| 
| I know that this has been discussed to some extent on this 
| forum.  I want to
| make sure that the server that I am building will have the 
| drives setup
| correctly.
| 
| 4 Drives Raid 0+1 for Mail Boxes only
| 2 Drives Raid 0 For OS/Programs
| 1 Drive for spool and logfiles
| 
| Does this look correct?  Or do I need to add or subtract 
| something here?
| 
| 
| Thanks,
