Should I use RAID 1 or RAID 5 for my Virtual Machine host server (Microsoft Hyper-V)? I am building a server that will be used as a virtual machine hosting server, using Microsoft Hyper-V as the virtual server hosting OS. The hardware I am using will be a motherboard with capacity for 6 SATA 10,000 RPM disks. I can set them up using RAID 1 or RAID 5. I cannot use a mix of different RAID options for the disks. I must choose either RAID 1 or RAID 5 for all the disks. Which option would be best for performance? I plan to create 10 virtual machines on the system. I know I would have more total disk capacity using RAID 5 instead of RAID 1 (mirroring), but am wondering if there is a benefit to using RAID 1 for the entire system, in regards to general performance. The virtual machines will be a mix of workstations, database servers, web servers, and other systems. The host OS (MS Hyper-V) uses a very small amount of disk space. The a majority of space will be dedicated the various virtual servers running. There is no need to send me links to websites describing RAID (I know about the various general benefits of the different types of RAID). I am interested in hearing from someone who has implemented a RAID configuration when setting up a virtual hosting server and have some good advice regarding which option offers best performance.

I want to start a web hosting business. How do I start? I always wanted to start a business, in the web hosting industry. I installed server 2003 on an old laptop I had, played with IIS and Active Directory. I also played around with linux, and Apache. I'm more experienced on Apache, than IIS. I want to manage customers, websites, and feel cool. I wanted a business like this since I was small. I'm 17 now, a senior in high school. I want to do networking and security when I get older. I would like to start a web hosting business. It would make me harder worker, and then money to look at and tell myself I did a good job. I see web hosting companies all the time, not providing support all the time. :/ Once in a while, they log in to their support, then back out. I'd like to be the host that does provide support all the time. I sold Microsoft keys a while ago on eBay, and in two weeks - I managed to sell over 100 keys, and got $3,200. I haven't had one person say my support was bad. They all thanked me for helping them out right away, after buying the key. So, anyhow, does anyone know where I can start to start my own business? Should I buy a dedicated server, advertise, gain customers. Then when I get money, I can advertise more, buy a bigger server. With more and more money, I can buy my own server and bandwidth and host at my house. Does that how other businesses start? I have about $3000 I can use to start my business, but I would only like to spend $200 of it now because I need to look for a car.

What's the benefit of having a dedicated/virtual hosting plan when using asp.net? Can you use just a regular hosting plan to make changes to a Microsoft SQL server database, or do you need dedicated/virtual?
