Snarl :-)

I was actually pretty impressed by software RAID support under Linux.

Took only a few mins to grab the latest copies of the software, install
it, read the docs, and get a 2x4G RAID 0 array up and running. Very
minor speed improvements, but it does allow a simple way to lever
several older/smaller drives into a larger flat partition.
