An advantage Linux has over both Solaris and Windows is that Linux

Bzzzt...wrong answer. ZFS supports software RAID (zraid) and allows you to
toss disks at the pool in any way you want. You can add them in pairs and
mirror them, just toss them in, or do a number of other things with them
such as creating serpate pools and/or filesystems.
I see Solaris/OpenSolaris being more flexible in that regard.
Oh, and there's no size limitation as imposed by Linux solutions either.
I once met Hans Reiser when he was giving a presentation on ReiserFS. I
would never host my data on ReiserFS after that event.:-/
