Best practice

Now that 7.1 has arrived, I would appreciate some feed back on the
following comments.

We use Ingres where I work and when setting up a server we always
try to ensure that the log and data files are on different spindles.

From both experience and advice from CAI, one can always recover a
database after a hardware failure or system crash, if any two of the
following are in good condition

Backup, Logfile, Datafiles.

I know that PostgreSQL isn't Ingres but there must be some useful
experiences from both experts and users alike. Is there any recommended
'placement' for the respective postgresql files.
