I do that too (multiple arrays using partitions). My reason for that is
to make future upgrades less painful as it is possible to just copy and
drop one array at a time.
I do that too, but my reason is that the arrays are different types. For
example, first partitions make RAID-1 for /boot, second partitions
RAID-1 or RAID-10 swap, third partitions RAID-5 or RAID-6 filesystem (or
several over LVM).
Cheers,
John.
