If you want to make sure that the server does not go down in the case of a
HDD failure, I would use RAID 5 with your 4th drive configured as an online
spare. This will give you ~292GB of usable disk space for your programs,
and the most fail safe configuration.
This does not however, mirror your drives. If Mirroring is what you would
like to do, use RAID 1.

I'm getting a new server with 4 SCSI Hot Pluggable Hard Disks 146GB each.
I need to use 292GB hard disk space for my programs and use the other
292GB
as mirrored. Which RAID is suitable for me?
if anyone of the hard disk fails, my server should not go down.
thanks in advance.
