[SunHELP] Small RAID array setup

[Tige D. Chastain]

I'm sure you've figured out by now that you cannot load Solaris 9
on that architecture.  Other than that, I'd use Solstice DiskSuite
and setup a RAID 1+0 for data integrity.  Of course, you loose more
disk space by doing mirroring, but you gain redundancy if one drive
should fail.
