Yes, this is what I also concluded since I wrote this email. I am in the process of upgrading my raid setup, and while I am at it I am leaving 5GB blank partitions at the start of all my workstations spindles, so I can get some real testing at night. I will share my methodology with the list before I commence testing (which should take about 20 days the way I am planing it).
