that wasn't the case the OP was referring to.I've forgotten the original context, but if it is setting up a new system you don't have much to lose in the initial sync - and by the time you do, you should have another copy already stored offsite. In this case, why involve the complexities of RAID at all. Just use individual disks, each with their own pool and rotate them. If a disk fails, you only lose that pool. It avoids all the complexities of raid - and the danger of raid corruption. I don't see any point in involving raid until you need to span pools over more than one disk. --
