Can u change stripe sizes on an Xserv Raid?

No change in performance with raid5 - the demo unit arrived as RAID 5- i got reagan to reformat at raid0 - no difference noted.
Only tested at standard definition.
raid setup doesnt matter that much when you arent trying to get 200MB/s out of the XServe RAID.

i think you can change stripe size - it takes days to reinitialise - so we didnt change too much.


Playback at hi-def is processor limited at the moment - ( but might not be if apple released quad computers )
