I know that I can use ftp, smb, etc. so i can browse the content that is placed in alfresco. can I use these same 5 drives for alfresco by listing them with in alfrescos file server or should i just throw them in side of the server that alfresco will be running on and just let the OS use them to expand the overall storage capacity of the system?

Yes, let the OS expand the overall storage. Alfresco stores all the content in a single directory. If possible configure RAID array to provide better resilience.

Can I search from the search function built in the OS to search Alfresco content?

Yes, Alfresco uses Lucene and provides full text searching.

Can I use rapid miner to search alfresco content when I need to mine information?

How does rapid miner consume the content? There are lots of ways to get at the Alfresco content.

Can Apache Solr search and index alfresco content?

In theory, you should be able to point Solr at Alfresco's lucene index. I haven't tried it myself. The other option is to use the URLDataSource Data Import Handler to push content into Solr.
