my servers generally have 2 disks mirrored for the OS, then 2 or more 
disks in a raid for the application file systems, be they databases, web 
files, NFS shared data, or whatever.   I generally make the OS raid an 
LVM volume, then allocate /, /var, swap, and maybe /home out of that.    
depending on what I'm doing, the data raid is probably also a LVM volume 
group, and would have things like /var/www, /var/lib/pgsql/9.0/data, as 
logical volumes, possibly /home, depending on usage patterns.

but, my workloads are often disk IO intensive.  Your Mileage May Vary.  
Objects In Mirror May Be Closer Than They Appear.  Caveat Emptor.  etc etc.
