Best performance for SQL2000

Hi
i must configure a RAID on external storage disk array for my SQL 2000
cluster ad have think this configuration :
1- DataFile on separate RAID5 LUN
2- LogFile on another separate RAID5 LUN
3- Quorum on another separate RAID1 LUN
This configugation is good for performace (datafile e logfile separated) and
security (Quorum on Mirror) !'!
Thanks in advanceMake the Log on a RAID 1 or a 10 and not a 5. Raid 5 has too many writes
for peak performance of logs.Put the extra disks into the data raid 5 or
make it a raid 10 for better performance.
