to RAID5 or Mirror

We need to run Oracle 8.1 in an NT 4 environment on an HP Netserver with 1gb RAM, dual processors, dual controllers, and six 36gb drives. The application is a police records management system and we want to maximize the input speed rather than read speed.

Is there any clear performance advantage between configuring in RAID 5 vs mirroring 2 sets of three 36gb drives?
