Hard Disk Planning for Active\Passive -

My company are planning a SQL cluster in Active\Passive mode.
In a similiar vain to the earlier post regarding Active\Active - what should
be my disk layout?
Each server will have a RAID 1 setup and will connect to a SAN.
The database is about 7GB in size.
At present the SAN is specified with 5x36GB disks. Performance doesn't have
to be screaming but it needs to be a resiliant as possible.
Should I order more disks?
What should the disk layout be?
RAID 1+0 for the data drives - partitioned between logs and data?
RAID 1 - for the Quorom.
??
In this situation obviously that is 6 drives in the SAN.
Any advice would be gratefully received!
Thanks
