Try to work towards making as much of the file system read only as
possible and isolating the writes into one file system / partition.
RAID is almost always a good idea but in the case of the OS locking up
frequently due to hardware problems, I suspect you will see lots of
issues with broken RAID mirrors with the OS locking up frequently.
