Striping should speed up disk performance the same way squid uses multiple disks, don't you think?
Therefore it shouldn't make much of a difference, if I break up our striped cache volume and use those disks independent from each other especially when both are connected to the same controller.

Just read in http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/squid/chapter/ch08.pdf that you should never use RAID for squid cache directories because it always degrades filesystem performance for squid.
RAID 5 will kill Squid performance, but other types shouldn't have much of an impact beyond the normal effects of that RAID setup on I/O performance.
