If I understood RAID 0+1, all it is is a mirrored stripped set. That would mean I would still be loosing 50% of my disk capacity. RAID 5 only has a 30% lose of disk capacity. Even better is RAID 0, with 0% loss of disk capacity. I am not worried too much about redundancy, but I would like to at least have the ability to save some files if one disk begins to slowly die.
