Hard disk configuration for Hyper-V server

I am building a new server to test out Hyper-V but I'm not sure how I should set up the hard drives. I want to buy 6 disks overall, two in a RAID1 and 4 in a RAID5. I was going to install Server 08 host on the RAID1 and then install the VM's and data on the RAID5. But then I read where users have the Server 08 host and all the VM OSes on the RAID1 and then all the data partitions on the RAID5. I also want to install SQL 2008 but I'm not sure what RAID array you would install that on for best performance. This is only for my home/testing so the I/O needs are not very important.

I think I will either buy all 500GB drives or buy 2 1TB for the RAID1 and 4 500GB for the RAID5.


Thanks
