MD without LVM : should I reinstall ?

Hello,

My hosting provider has a setup for me a Debian server using md RAID1 b=
ut it=20
does not use LVM, should I consider re-install with LVM ?

# mount | grep ' / '
/dev/md0 on / type ext3 (rw,errors=3Dremount-ro)
# fdisk -l

Disk /dev/sdb: 250.1 GB, 250059350016 bytes
..
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sdb1 * 1 30155 242220006 fd Linux raid auto=
detect
/dev/sdb2 30156 30401 1975995 5 Extended
/dev/sdb5 30156 30401 1975963+ 82 Linux swap / So=
laris

Disk /dev/sda: 250.1 GB, 250059350016 bytes
..
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sda1 * 1 30155 242220006 fd Linux raid auto=

/dev/sda5 30156 30401 1975963+ 82 Linux swap / So=
laris

Disk /dev/md0: 248.0 GB, 248033181696 bytes
..
Disk /dev/md0 doesn't contain a valid partition table

Thanks for your feedback

Re: MD without LVM : should I reinstall ?

maybe, you will use snapshot? ext3 don=B4t have snapshot, will you use =
lvm?
