Is it striping across mirrored sets of disk (2 disks)? Or is your system striping across 3 disks and mirroring that with the other 3? Maybe there's no difference, but I've always had it in the back of my mind that stripping across mirrored sets is the preferred way to do this. /* PLUG: http://plug.org, #utah on irc.freenode.net Unsubscribe: http://plug.org/mailman/options/plug Don't fear the penguin. */
