Well DRBD doesn't but if you want to access your mysql logs and 
datafiles you need both drbds. Neil probably wants to split logs and 
data for performance reasons - which really makes sence for non hardware 
raid assisted setups.

But Neil watch out to let your drbd devices run in synchronous mode only 
- if you use anything else than drbd protocol C you could run into 
trouble with databace consistency. Write order consistency is only 
guaranteed within a single drbd device in the mirroring state (correct 
me if I'm wrong @ drbd Linbit guys) - so with anything else than 
Protocol C you may rist ACID iif you run more than 1 drbd device for a 
SINGLE database.
