If you've got the time, try making your 5 disk array into a RAID10 plus one spare. I found that with that few disks, RAID10 was a better performer for an even mix of read/write to the DB. -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Vivek Khera, Ph.D. Khera Communications, Inc.
