To the OP, while most of the advice on this thread has been good, I'd
be careful of that one.  *Keep* your drives in a mirrored configuration
and have *additional* disks for backup purposes.

Just to clarify, I was referring specifically to the comment about
not using mirroring; I didn't trim quite enough quoting in my original
response.

The other thing I forgot to mention is replacing failed drives from
a mirrored RAID works a lot better if you've got a daemon monitoring
the SMART attributes.
