I have replaced my original 80GB SYSTEM volume with two 250GB Western Digital Caviar/SE drives in a RAID-1 mirrored pair configuration, and I'm still using the, two 250GB Samsung drives a RAID-0 striped set as my MEDIA volume. I've also added a fifth 400GB drive as a scratch disk, since I had one more slot available in the G5 Jive. The RAIDs have all been created using SoftRAID, this utility rocks and is far better than Apple's disk utility. Update (June 22, 2006): I’ve re-arranged my system a little bit.
