    I've got 6 large SAS disks in three RAID-1 sets, and have divided the data load, I think, between them. My goal is to optimize performance by splitting up the IO activity across the disks during the work day.

    I'm hardly a RAID specialist, but isn't it better to create just 1 big RAID-5(or 6)? If you do that then the data load will be automatically divided evenly.
