The raid will use 3 or 4 identical harddrives.
Is that mirrored? If so, heres a gotcha:

"Note as well that RAID 1 sets are currently limited to only
2 components. At present, n-way mirroring is not possible."
However, I think with multiple layered mirroring, what you want is possible.
I was thinking about using (testing :) RAID 5.
As stuart has pointed out, upgrading that will not be as easy as it
could with hw raid.
Yes, as long it is compatible with my budge ;)
Hope that sves you some time and frustration.
Thanks
