I agree.
BTW - for RAID1, install GRUB (or whatever 
bootloader you are using) to the boot sectors of 
both drives - that way the system can boot from 
either drive. If you only install the bootloader 
on one drive, if that fails then your system will 
keep running but won't be able to boot.

Yes, that's what I do.
