Concerning hardware, it depends on your budget. RAID 5 is a good compromise
between costs and safety of data. Mirroring is more expensive but safer,
and should also be faster, if it is done at hardware level. Be careful
between software and hardware raid options, because hardware raid option
are effectively faster, whilst software raid option can put load o your
processing capability.

That is what I can remember by now about raid.

Concerning MySQL itself, why don't you drop a line on the mysql list? they
should know!

Hope this helps
