Can someone suggest a reasonable chunk-size for a RAID-5 array that
spans 3 120GB IDE disks?

Everything I read says that I should spend a day benchmarking things to
find the absolute best value, but I don't need the best value (the array
will be storing a bunch of read-only music files), and I don't feel like
wasting a day on this.

So what values are other folks using for similar arrays?

Thanks!
