Hi!

I'm about to create a RAID5 with three 4TB disks (ST4000VN000
  from Seagate) and I wonder what the optimal chunk size is/should be.
There are so many different views on the internet that I've almost lost 
faith in the internets.

Is there even such a thing as optimal chunk size?
Are there any other stuff I should think about?
