Has anyone had any experience or comment regarding linux RAID over ieee1394?

As a budget backup solution, I am considering using a pair of 500GB 
drives, each connected to a firewire 400 port, configured as a linear 
array, to which the contents of an onboard array will be rsynced weekly.

In theory, throughput performance should not be an issue, but it would 
be great to hear from somone who has done this.

Regards,

Richard
