I want to setup a debian server mainly used as data storage. I have 4 devices:

  • /dev/sda (160GB) - installed debian on it
  • /dev/sdb, /dev/sdc, /dev/sdd (all 500GB) - created a raid5 array with it

Now I am not sure, how to go on. Is it usefull to create a LVM on the raid5 /dev/md0? How can I do this? Is there a good HowTo?

Or can I just create filesystem on the raid5 and create different partitions?
