This is why I could not figure out why the need for one big one. For £280
you can get 82Gb's of SCSI drive in four discs and stripe them. I know if
you use parity that you loose disk space but the performance benefits etc
are great. 

Do the raid thing as I will be doing it in the next few months and I would
like a guinea pig.
