My two options for fault tolerance currently are mirroring or disk striping with parity. The quickest solution for us right now is mirroring, just to get something into place. But I need to know what is the best way to go about implementing RAID 5 on my servers when the time and money are available…I’ve a newbie to this, so I’d need to know the details (i.e. platform, requirements, best way to back up and restore info on the new stripe set, speed/cost comparisons, etc.).
thanks!
