This controller can only create 2 pairs of mirrored disks, for RAID 5 you need the optional P400 smartarray controller.

If you are using 347786-B21- HP 64/133 2-ports Int PCI-X SAS Host Bus Adapter,

Fault Tolerance: Keeps data available and server running while a failed drive is being replaced

Drive Mirroring (RAID 1): This allocates half of the drive array to data and the other half to mirrored data, providing two copies of every file.
