Video editing with raid 5?

What would be the best (and safest) raid setup for a video editing computer? I am thinking about 3 sata 80gigers on raid5. Is this going to be the best way?

well how is your cash.. i don't realy like raid 5 safe good reads but slow wrights. you might want to consider a 0+1. it would take 4 drive and only be 1/2 the size of the 4. but will give you by far the fastest reads and wrights. what do you all think...

RAID 5 wouldn't be the best solution for video editing because of its inherently low bandwidth. If you are truly concerned about redundancy, I would opt for a RAID 0+1, but you will need four disks for that and get only half of total capacity.

Personally I would just use a RAID 0, and say to hell with redundancy. Drives don't fail that often anymore, and few applications warrant true fault tolerance.

Yes I have also considered 0 but this is for his new business that he is starting. I guess I will present him with the options of 0 or 1+0. Thx guys.

I'm setting up a video editing box and since I have most of the drives already, I'll be doing 2 drives in a RAID 0 setup and 3 drives in a RAID 5 setup for storage. The RAID 0 will be used for scratch for speed and when I'm done, the data will be stored on the second array.

Like was mentioned above, RAID 5 writes are too slow for video edition IMO.
