I use software RAID1 on two SATA drives and then create the LVM structure on the RAID1 "disk".. Have 3 servers running like this and its great, one was running out of space in /home but had pleanty free in /var so I just reduced the size of /var and added to /home.. The whole process took just a few min.. LVM can also be useful to take backups of volumes where files are constantly changing by using the "snapshot" feature..
