I'd agree with this config generally, assuming:
1. We're talking Exchange 5.5, or Exchange 2000 with a single storage
group.
2. The 72Gb available on the RAID5 set allows enough room to run the
database utilities should you need to

would get 4 drives for the IS.
There
seems to be a great performance boost going from 3 to 4 drives in RAID
5.

If money is not an issue, I would go
with:
2 x 9 GB RAID 1 for system
2 x 18 GB RAID 1 for transaction logs
6 x 36 GB RAID 0+1 for Database
RAID-5 is fine, but if you ever need to
restore a database it might take 5 times longer to write. Writes
store. The same system was down less
then 2 minutes when a fourth disk was added then taken
away,

We are running RAID 5 for the information store but RAID 0+1 is obviously
better in performance. If you can afford the drives, go RAID 0+1 on the
database.
