Question about performance with RAID disk

Hi,

We are running Squid in an Alpha box with squid cache directory in Digital
advfs, RAID5 disk
(historical reasons) . We are going to change the box to Sun or Linux boxes. Is
it a good idea to use RAID or
we'll have better performance if we use multiple harddisks (no RAID) for
caching?

Thanks,
