I would not do Raid 0+1. I would just use 2 in Raid 0 config.

Nah, you think too small...

Here's what you should get (http://www.pobox.com/~chaotic42/raid.jpg)

You would, of course, need cables and adapters, about 50 new PSUs, a few 42U racks, and a massive cooling solution, but it's 30,068,529,168,384 bytes of storage....

Yeah, about. It's only kind of a joke, because you can't have more than 99 drives with newegg.

However, if you broke out 7 of those cards, each holding 60 drives, you could have 66,292,820,213,760 bytes. Or if you RAID 0ed it
(can you RAID 0 420 hard drives?) one really fast 157,840,048,128 byte drive!

Yeah, when you look at it, it's hard to say "that drive isn't __________ enough" about anything, maybe larger if you need, but that is fine for me. It's large, fast, fat with cache on a SATA interface, pretty tough to beat for consumer drives ATM.
