Raid 5 is generally good for mostly read situations, though you may want
to do some bench marking to see if you really need that. More spindles
are better than fewer spindles. Normally you would use raid 10 in preference
to raid 0+1, since raid 10 handles failures better. If are capturing video and
not publishing it, than raid 10 is usually better than raid 5 unless you have
a fair number of spindles.
In my case, I will be capturing video, editing, and then authoring DVDs. So the streaming during capture and editing is important. The authoring of the DVD not so much because it can only stream as fast as the drive can write. But everything else needs to be able to keep up.


In your case you might have a cpu bottleneck
depending on what processing you are doing of the video.
I'm not worried about that. At the moment I'm using a Core 2 Duo Extreme and will eventually bump that up to a quad core. The old system had a Core 2 Duo 2.6GHz and it worked wonderfully.
