I'm contemplating ordering a RAID5 controller and 4 hard drives...

I'm saying I don't know what a RAID5 controller is, but I do know what a harddrive is.

And tonight it's only you and me

I'm saying RAID stands for Redundant Array of Independant Drives and is a way of making multiple drives appear to be one to windows (or whatever OS you use). A RAID5 is a parity setup which uses one drive to store parity checks of the other 2-7 drives; using the basis that any binary file XORed with a parity file of the same size will result in a desired 3rd file.

Essentially... if one hard drive fails, the parity drive can be used to rebuild the data on the failed drive. Very handy if, say, you have 7 years of mp3 burning and compilation to store.
