Thanks for the tip, didn't think of it this way...

Well, that's what I am counting on since the beginning of my interrest for md...
Indead, LVM would be a good alternative to the growth capability of md
anyway... Although I would prefer a pure md extension to the raid...
Well, anyway, removing drives is (for me) a little out-of-topic,
because the system will be entropic : loads of data will come in, none
will get out... Removing a drive would only mean the drive is dead.
