You need at least 6 drives for RAID5. I don't know if Perc 4e/Di allows configuring the RAID5.
Where did you get this bit of information? You can create a raid 5 with 3 or more disks.

3 drives is not really recommended, since if 1 dies, you'll probably loose the whole set. Rather use min 4 drives, where 1 drive is a hot spare)
