RAID 5 requires 3 disks or disk partitions of same size. Like RAID 0 this RAID level also allows you to create filesystem larger then any one disk partititions. For eample if you have 3 - 72 Gb hard disks you can have one filesystem as big as "140 " Gb disk size third disk will be used for parity saving. If you loose one disk you will be able to recover your data without any issue unlike mirroring.
