I should say...

If I were to replace my current hosts machine...and buy my own....as opposed to what the current hardware is...

RAID 0 might be best of both speed/redun???? true?

Mirrorring is the best for both.... but it'll cost you twice as much...

have a look at www.storagereview.com . Ide raid arrays probably aren't as fast as you might think

I think RAID 5 or 10 is what you're looking for, for speed and redundancy.
<I>In RAID-5 data is partially duplicated across all drives and arranged in such a manner that the loss of any one drive will not destroy any data"
In RAID 10 (0+1) which combines striping and mirroring, you want at least four disks to do this, in multiples of two, divided into two sets. Each set of disks is stiped together, and each set of stripes mirror the other. if you can afford this setup. Use it</I>

remember folks ... 1+0 is not the same as 0+1.

from what i remember raid 0 is slower than raid 5 because it has to w-r-i-t-e the data twice (disk mirroring). if your gonna chose any type of raid config either go raid 0 or raid 5...all the inbetweens are useless in my opinion. if i had a choice i would use raid 5..it's a bit more expensive but you get more disk space...if you have five 50 Gig drives you get 250 gigs worth of space...if you have two 50 gig drives for raid 0 you only get 50 gigs of space.

Description: The simplest RAID level, RAID 0 should really be called "AID", since it involves no redundancy. Files are broken into stripes of a size dictated by the user-defined stripe size of the array, and stripes are sent to each disk in the array. Giving up redundancy allows this RAID level the best overall performance characteristics of the single RAID levels, especially for its cost. For this reason, it is becoming increasingly popular by performance-seekers, especially in the lower end of the marketplace.

RAID 10/0+1 is also a good option!
