Raid0? I am assuming you are going for the speed benefits(which are neglible at worst and not 2x the speed at best) instead of data security?
Perhaps data security really isn't an issue for the poster. For example, I've got a rack of servers with identical content. Except for the logs, everything on any of the servers is really expendible (as long as they ALL don't fail...heh). So I mirror the partition containing the log data and periodically aggregate all the logs to somewhere "safe." As a result, I feel comfy using RAID 0 for the data partitions on those servers.
