The RAID 0, RAID 1 and crypto disciplines have been stable for the better part of the last two years (RAID 1 got rebuild and hotspare support about 2 years ago). The remaining disciplines (RAID 4, RAID 5, RAID 6, AOE) are certainly "experimental" and incomplete. -- "Reason is not automatic. Those who deny it cannot be conquered by it. Do not count on them.
