Just a data point -- our netapp filer actually creates additional raid groups 
that are added to the greater pool when you "add disks", much as zfs does now.  
 They aren't simply used to expand
the one large raid group of the volume.    I've been meaning to rebuild the 
whole thing to 
get use of the multiple parity disks back.  

Ours is a few years old and isn't running the latest software rev, so maybe 
they've overcome
this now, but thought I'd mention it.
