What is the HDD size? For a base OS + MySQL server, a 4GB SATA Disk
on Module (DoM) may be sufficient.

Again, hopefully, you have sized these disks for sufficient space for
the DB files, presuming you will mount this device on /var/lib/mysql.

You may want to put /tmp, /var/tmp/, /var/log on separate partitions -
1G, 1G, 3G, respectively. You can "steal" this kind of space by
creating a LV on your RAID10 device and carving it up as above with
the rest for your MySQL files.
