I have the above and would appreciate some input to how others are creating their LUN's.

Currently I am using VRAID 1.

HP recommends VRAID 1 as best practice, but I am beginning to wonder how many other people are doing this as opposed to VRAID 5?

I am getting to the current maximum of our EVA storage, and if I ask for some more disks, the inevitable questions are going to come, such as dropping the RAID level to VRAID 5 to free up some disk space (thus saving money - which is a valid point).
