Linux software raid is better in this case. HW raid does not always
play well with desktop drives. Search for TLER. Although for MythTV I
highly recommend looking at SnapRaid. With MythTV you do not need to
put all your eggs in 1 basket. SnapRaid allows for redundancy but
still keeps independent drives and offers up to 6 parity drives.
