Off-topic, but when you say add more disks, do you mean for the
purpose of replacing failing disks or for expanding the array? I'm
curious because on initial reading I read it to mean expanding the
storage capacity of the array but thought it was currently not
possible to expand a mdadm RAID 0 non-destructively.
