Reasonable chunk-size for RAID-5
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!
