There is a general Linux RAID Howto and FAQ at http://linux-raid.osdl.org/

Especially there is a howto on setting up a system with raid all the way 
at http://linux-raid.osdl.org/index.php/Preventing_against_a_failing_disk

There is somthing on performance of the various tyoes of Linux raid at
http://linux-raid.osdl.org/index.php/Performance . 

This is information made by the Linux-raid kernel group and reflects 
quite recent information. Many other sites contain info that is rather 
old.
