I would agree.
I tried using Mandrake 8.1 on a HP server. It was set up with Raid 5 for
storage and mirrored disks for for Mandrake. Installed OK but it would not
boot after the install. Would like to remember what the error was but RH
7.2 worked straight of the bat.

Shouldn't be too many issues, but I'm not sure how well set up Mandrake
would be for RAID... It's designed to be a desktop OS. Given your
preference
for Mandrake, perhaps you'd want to go with Red Hat as your server OS - the
RAID set up in the RH installer is sweeeeeeeet.
