So, RAID 1? RAID 10?

TIA for any advice.

The Single Server Quick Start Guide Said :

RAID-5 is not recommended for installations with more than 100 accounts

So you may go if your account will not reach 100 or more

I'm currently using RAID-1 (Software RAID, ZCS 5.0.21 on openSUSE 11.1 and ZCS 6.0.3 on SLES 11) for about 75 user account.
