Again, still consider myself very new to this, but what I have started
to do is use Raid1, and setup postfix to send email/text failure
notifications.
I haven't had a real failure yet, but during testing (including
simulated failure on the bench) it works pretty well.

I don't like RAID at all. I prefer to build a second, fully
functioning RD machine and have it mirror the first one. If I lose the
first one, I switch to the backup.
My problem with RAID boils down to the reality that most of the RD
systems I build are for stations with no resident technical person. If
a drive in a RAID array fails, no one will notice. I'll hear about it
when a second drive fails and the station goes off the air.
