Hi,
I have a setup of 2 SCSI disks with 8 partitions on each
consumed by software RAID0.
I started bonnie++ with really weird parameters
on each of the 8 meta devices at the same time.
So I had 8 bonnies++ chewing my raid0 configuration...
May be there could be more exhaustive tests,
but this one helped me to find a bad block on one
of the brand new IBM SCSI harddrive :)
Did not see any problems with RAID or reiserfs though.
Art.
