Default Raid suggestions?

Hello,

We have just bought Dell MD1000, together with 15 SAS 15K hard disks.

This server will be connected to 6 web servers which provide a
centralized storage using NFS.

This server is important as if it down, other web servers didn't work
so I need to consider if which Raid configuration is better choice?

Assume it is 80% rad, 20% write, and average file size is around
30-50KB. Total capactity is important so we don't consider RAID 10.


Should I set RAID50 for my server? Or Raid6?

Thanks.
