OK, let me be less cryptic.
RAID5 with 3 drives, or RAID10 with two... fine, lose one drive, you're still
OK. Forget I even said anything.
BUT... I do have to step in and complain loudly about software RAID. If you
don't care about your data, feel free to set up software RAID.
The same thing goes for Fake RAID. If you like your data and want to keep it,
get a real controller.
