Raid Level Recommendation

Raid Level Recommendation

 

  

Dear DBAs,

We are about to get a new Sun system SunFire E2900 (32 GB RAM) for our
database server.
We will also get a 2 disk arrays StoreEdge 6130 with 14 harddisk of
size 73 GB each.
We will have 6 database instance s running on the box. One of the DB is
a decision support DB
and the rest are mixed mode.

What is the reccomendation for the Raid level? I'm considering between
Raid 5 and Raid 0+1 .

Any idea on the stripe size?

Thanks,
Ancy
