Has anyone successfully setup Bill's toaster with SATA RAID? A year or two ago we setup a toaster with a two drive 3ware IDE RAID mirroring setup and the performance was awful. Maybe it was because we didn't have write caching enabled on the RAID controller or should have tweaked the kernel settings.

I looked at Bill's proposed setup for an ISP but we're just trying to do this for a single server setup. The only solution we've been able to come up with in the past is to have a single small drive for booting, /var/qmail and /var/logs and run SATA RAID for /home/vpopmail and everything else. But we'd really like to have RAID running for the qmail queue since that's what beats the hell out of a hard disk.

Any recommendations or experiences anyone?
