ahem, a RAID 0 array with autocad files. I suppose he does regular backups right? I mean it sure would suck to LOSE all those work files because you doubled his chances of data loss from hd falure, right?
If you are going with a RAID-0 array, which sounds like a good idea, please remember that you're sacrificing data security for speed. Make sure there is a disaster recovery plan in place. Not a "we're talking about it someday" plan, but a real "we planned it AND implemented it" kind of plan.
Run a set of mirrored drives if you want, buy a tape backup system, whatever...just make sure you are actually making current backups.
