SQL 2000 recomended drive configuration

Hi.

I'm building a new SQL 2000 server. I typically use HP DL380 machines with
split backplane. SCSI controller one will have a pair of 72 GB drivesin RAID
1 (C:). This will be used for the operating system. SCSI controller two
will have 4 300 GB drives in a RAID 5. Three of the drives will make up the
RAID 5 and the forth will be an online spair. SQL will be installed on the
RAID 5 (D:).

Is this configuration ok? Is there a prefered way to set them up? This
setup is fine for recovery but maybe not optimal for performance?

Thanks,
Scott
