(I can also make an hourly rsync crom job if raid is overkill) Actually, IMO, an rsync job is safer than raid, it covers more failure modes, but not as fast.
In a sense not as fast - or faster. A RAID on one disk means one disk takes double [or worse] the same write load. If the user gets deep into I/O performance is going to suffer. But for ease of use, etc... if some redundancy and some time-machine is desired I'd put LVM on the mirrored partition and create a snapshot every hour, dropping snapshots after a few snapshots deep.
