BOOTING WITH A RAID 5

Hi -

We are about to implement RAID 5 on a new NT Server.
It has however, come to our attention that if the
boot drive is included in the RAID 5 PARITY SET,
the server will no longer boot. The argument is having
the boot drive C:\ set-up with RAID 1 mirroring to another
drive and the remaining drives set with RAID 5.

This doesn't sound correct to me. Could someone with
RAID implementation experience please clarify this
argument.

O/S NT SERVER 4.0

Thanks in advance for your reply's.

Best Regards
