I dont mind losing the data in the cache, but if one disk fails the downtime will be much higher with a failing stripe.
No need to panic, but I will split them asap.
Thanks! Hendrik.

I agree at once with RAID 5. Striping should speed up disk performance the same way squid uses multiple disks, don't you think?
Yes, but if all you are doing is striping, then you might be better off splitting the disks - a disk failure will only wipe out part of your cache instead of all of it.
