Nice! I have a hardware RAID 5 with BBU using 4x WD Raptor 10,000 rpm drives for my SQL Server. The higher rpm drives are nice and quick, but the failure rate is higher than a lower rpm drive. I lose a couple Raptor drives a year. I have the RAID 0 drives in a software array. I maintain 9x arrays total (
6x hardware arrays, 3x software arrays).
