Yes, you've to recreate the tables with RAID option (read the manual for
details)
and move and link the directoris manually.
I think there may be a performance gain, instead of performance
hit...Because as the file spread on diff discs, the seek time gain.
The code should has been stablize already, I think.
BTW, why you want it to span over multiple drive?
