A RAID 0+1 configuration, with data striped over two disks on one adapter and mirrored to the other adapter, is more reliable and probably a little bit faster.
That's what my partner said when I told him about the proposed database server (he has to deal with RAID issues at work sometimes).

However, I believe RAID 0+1 will give you less performance than RAID 5, and cuts the amount of space you have as well. It will probably perform better than RAID 5 in the case of a disk failure, however.
