I have this exact config at home :) Only difference would be the raid type and
controller I am sure, I used a pretty high end LSI SAS Card with sata's hung
off it. I would seriously recommend LVM, its so flexible, and I would take that
raid 5 and replace it with mirrors personally, but you are using it at home I
guess. Most people forget to factor in the downside to raid 5: Slow regens that
kill performance while being non redundant during the only one possible failure
it could have.
Godo luck!
