Thanks to Gavin and Alban for additional considerations, all very useful.
As for Linux, I have to admit that I am biased too! I use it heavily, which
is the reason I would incline for its use. But after all, since I'm not
going to administrate the server, the best choice will probably be IT

Unless you need all that data in ram (and you probably don't), then
any machine should be capable. The real questions are, how many
concurrent clients? How static is the data? What is your query
complexity?

I doubt there is a general rule as to which is better, it will depend
upon the individual circumstances (including budget).
It is my experience that 0+1 is a bit faster that RAID 5.

Were you told why that was the wrong choice?

I have had the Mirroring vs RAID 5 debate before.
You would go with RAID 5 to obtain the fault tolerance.
That was my first choice but I was told I was wrong.
0+1 is RAID + STRIPE, it is (theoretically) faster than RAID 5 but
requires 4 disks where RAID 5 o

The last time I built an RH system, one with 1GB, I had to recompile
the kernel and change the 'High Memory Support' setting to get it to
use the full 1GB.
That was under RH 8, though.
Even on redhat 8, all you have to do is install the bigmem kernel...
which does ship with RH8.

I am considering a generic box with a single 2 - 2.6 Gig processor.
2 Gig of RAM and mirrored 200 Gig drives.
Use RAID 5 or 0+1...
Does this config cover the above requirements very well.
Does anybody know if RedHat 9 or Fedora can address 2 Gig
of RAM out of the box?
Yes they can.
