I have some limited experience with RAID 5. We used it quite successfully on a
datawarehouse app ( 50 GB ) where it was mostely read access. For transaction
processing, you'll take some hits on performance due to extra writes ( unless
you've got one of the newer units with lots of cache ). This is holding true
at my current client's site where temp and rollback tablespaces were moved off
the raid array with some perfromance improvements.
