The basic question is how will you interface your raid controller ? Just so it doesn't get more complicated than attaching, say, a slim 1.8" or 2.5" SSD drive which would beat anything in capacity (also talking about future, presuming the price of those things continue coming down as it is now).

If it's just for space, LVM is a potential option, too, less overhead than RAID and does the job probably in an even more flexible way.
