[ale] Which gives better performance raid 0 or 1 ?

[Jeff Hubbs]

Generally RAID0, but at the expense of reliability.  RAID1 can give you 
enhanced read performance under some situations.  But, because of the 
reliability hit you take on RAID0 (twice the danger just from going from 
one drive to two), it's difficult to recommend especially if you have 
the RAM to make yourself a nice ramdisk as long as power-cycle 
persistence isn't a problem.  You can get significant performance 
improvement plus drive-loss survivability by using RAID1+0, but you do 
so at the expense of storage cost-effectiveness.
