For this to be true, it would have to be absolute. Since

Interesting thoughts on raid5 although I doubt many would agree.
That's okay. We all have our off days... Here's some quality reading:

*Serial* reads and writes. That is not the access pattern that you will have in
most virtualization hosts.
What wasn't in the test (but is in others that they've done) is RAID
6.

So if I have 6 drives on my RAID controller which do I choose?
considering the port-cost of good raid cards, you could probably use md
and get 8 or 10 drives for the same money. It's hard to beat more
