RAID5

[Greg Green <greg@advantagecom.com>]

Hello all:

Can anyone point me in a good direction to learn how to set up RAID5 ?
I am wanting to add three SCSI drives to my 1 EIDE Drive system.  I am
thinking
that I could add another EIDE drive as a mirror to the boot
device/operating system, and
RAID5 the 3 SCSI devices for mass storage and speed for applications.
Can anyone help, or does it even sound like a good idea?

Also, I am running 1.3.1, kernel 2.0.32 ( I think, after I recompiled
the kernal via rlogin, I
rebooted and could never reconnect)  I hope it worked, but now I have to
wait until this
weekend to make a trip out to my box.  This is why I wanted to get some
information about RAID5
in advance.

Thanks for any input.
