Yes thats correct, but i also dont like the idee to host this on 1 server

>>Can you give more details on what's required?

The sites are verry small about 10 mb a site, 
the space is being used for there costumers to upload files
(its a copyshop) 
the files wil be in amounts of about 25 mb
My costumer will get a email that someone has uploaded an file
and then they will download these files ones a day.
So i dont think there will be a heavy load for the servers 
at the same times.
The sites are very simpel no special support requered

So i like the idee of several raid servers, and a backup server
so when a server breaks down, i can easely put it back on line.
Thats why my interest goes to the raq 550, but my nowledge is
not so high that i now if the cpu etc can handle this, but i cant
think why
