Well it might be a good idea as then you start from a freshly installed

It should point to 8080 for Dansguardian.

By the way if you do reinstall, you may find it easier to do a manual 
partition in the install program to setup your other drives.  I can't 
remember if you can setup RAID on the Live CD when installing a Desktop 
but you could certainly setup each drive in your system as Gordon 
suggested and it means you don't have to mess around editing the fstab 
(not a hard job really but if you can get away without having to do it 
then it may make life a bit easier).  You could also then put the swap 
partition on another drive too, maybe the 5th spare drive, with the rest 
of the 5th drive partitioned for future use? (I'm thinking maybe a local 
cache of wikipedia, or maybe you could use it for web space so the 
students could create their own internal intranet or something or other).
