Default large disks


Solaris 2.8, IDS 9.30.UC6W1, Enterprise 6000. We have a new SunFire 6800 and are in the process of ordering 2 3510 storage arrays. We plan to be on 64 bit 9.4x, Solaris 9 before moving to the new server. What is the best way to lay out these large disks - stipe and mirror? Currently, we have a ton of old 2 gig disks with a few 18 and 32s thrown in. We don't have the current disks striped but do have access to Veritas. We are not using nor plan to use RAID5 and will probably go with hardware mirroring. I have the opportunity to start with fresh hardware and would greatly value any suggestions or lessons learned.
