Thanks to those who responsed promptly.

Most of them do not agree using Mirroring and Raid 5 at the same time as
it will slow down the i/o time.

Suggested using 2 disks as mirroring and the rest for raid 5.
Most of them mentioned that using raid 5 is just an additional waste of
disk space and slow in processing.

Once again, thanks for all your suggestions.
