Storage servers

Hey folks,
before committing to anything, i thought i'd get some additional input. I
need more storage on my home network, mostly media files, HD TV and movies
eat up disk space very quickly.
I currently have an HP microserver with a bunch of disks in, set up as
RAID5, sharing files across the LAN with SMB and NFS, but i'm running low
on space.  I just bought another microserver, since they are again on £100
cash back offer. I plan to fil that with disks also.

Should i just set it up the same as the first, and point mount points etc
to the new server from clients, or from the original server, making it
relatively seamless to clients at the expense of some performance, or is
there a better way of setting it up?

Anyone got any pointers?

Thanks

G
