So, here's what I have planned for my uber-safe simple reactor:
Here's a 2D diagram. Water is indicated by Squid. Dynamite indicates redstone. The advanced machine refers to reinforced stone. Personal safes represent reaction chambers.

EDIT: Whoever's in charge of the smileys here needs to adjust some priorities...
I don't think the extra layer of water actually cools the reactor, but I can't afford to put reinforced stone there too, I think.
All this is inside a huge cobblestone bunker underground, which is 12 x 13 x 10 with 3 layers of cobble on top.
The high-efficiency wire heads into an MFE unit, which is led by more high-efficiency wire well outside the bunker into an LV transformer, which powers my simple-machine base.
I'm probably only going to have a Mark 1 reactor at first, with uranium cells surrounded by cooling cells. I don't need uber-efficiency, just enough energy to keep my base constantly powered.
But before I start placing everything, this layout should work, correct?
