Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think "JBOD" (just bunch of disks)
is a name for some simple sort of multi-disk array, where disks
are just joined into one volume, without any stripping/mirroring.

One can think of jbod as a subset of lvm, where resizing (if possible)
is not so easy. Or s subset of raid0, where strip-size is large than
capacity of any single disk (e.g. actually no stripping :-)
