Well, at least you can easily partition the devices for that to happen.

However, I would also suggest that would it be more useful use of the
resource to run many arrays in parallel? Ie. one 6-device raid6, one
20-device raid6, and then perhaps use the rest of the devices for a very
large btrfs filesystem? Or if you have been using partitioning the large
btrfs volume can also be composed of all the 122 devices; in fact you
could even run multiple 122-device raid6s and use different kind of
testing on each. For performance testing you might only excert one of
the file systems at a time, though.
