Lime Technology has a pretty cool product for this. As I understand it, it is a version of RAID 4. You don't get the performance benefit of striping, but performance is still more than adequate for the typical home media server.
A couple of nice points about it are that the array can be as small as two disks (1 parity and 1 data), it's easily expandable and drives can be different sizes (though not larger than the parity drive).
Their prebuilt box is a little pricy, but you can also just buy their software and build your own box.
