    With raid5 you read one and write two disks for each write, wide arrays
    really hurt
    when running on degraded mode but I donīt see whatīs the issue when running
    fully operational? Though people usually expect raid to deliver some
    performance
    when degraded so running raid50 instead of too wide raid5 is usually a good
    idea. (50 being striped raid5 arrays)
