Not really answering your question directly, but may I suggest, if cost is not *absolutely* critical, that you consider RAID 10? If it is a server, then certainly you will want to get away from a three-drive RAID 5. A RAID 10 is a good compromise between redundancy, speed, and cost. It just takes four drives instead of three (or two.)

Is there an advantage of software raid10 over multiple raid1 arrays
joined with LVM?  Capacity can be dynamically added with pairs of disks.

Doug.


Only one: simplicity. It would make it easier for someone to understand, in the beginning.
