I just want to add: This is why I really would love for us to have

RAID3 is not commercially viable because windows cannot use non-512
byte sectors.
We can.
RAID3 would scream for us.
What about disk arrays that support RAID3?
Would work for me, but most of them are dumbed down when they do RAID3:
they have to hard format the disks to 128 byte sector sizes and similar
madness in order to support 512 bytes sectors on the RAID3 volume.
I would really love the 512 + 8 byte checksum stuff that mainframes
and netapps do. Does GEOM simplify implementing something like this ?
