Indeed - many citrix servers are blades/1U servers anyway so its not often a
choice.
In all fairness for random writes (like you generally have on a citrix
server) Raid5 is technically better suited than R. But, at best you're only
going to be adding 1 or more drives so not that many more spindles to make
much of a difference in the real world I would have thought.
Raid1 for a sensible level of redundancy - ideally on the fastest drives you
can get.

1. Why waste an additional drive for an OS?

Which do most of you run on your Citrix servers, raid 1 or raid 5?
