Hi,
I've installed an Openbsd4.0 server with a LSI Megaraid S-ATA 150-6 LSI
Controller. It has a RAID5 logical drive containing 6 HDs (1 is hot spare).

 $ sudo bioctl ami0
Volume  Status               Size Device
 ami0 0 Scrubbing   1600332496896 sd0     RAID5 60% done

 ami0 1 Hot spare    400083124224 0:5.0   noencl <        ST3400620NS

I would like to use most of the space for /home/backup!

I thought about using 4x350GB (or X x XXX GB, any recommandations are
appreciated) partitions (to reduce the fsck times when fsck is needed),
and  concatenate them via ccd to /home/backup?!

Is this the best way to do it or would you recommand me to do it
differently?
