You're point about mobo failure is a good one. I had not considered
that. I did consider (assuming mobo raid) what would happen if one HD
failed and I could not get an exact replacement. Even more so for a
mobo. Replacing each part with an exact duplicate becomes harder as time
moves on. My HD's are the newest Seagate's, 7200.11's, so those will
probably be available for some time to come.

With software raid you can use different disk models, even of different size and speed. Obviously, the added partition should be of the same size or a bit larger, the rest would have to go on another independent partition.
