Strip size selection
When a logical drive is created, the unit of data that is stored on each drive is defined as a “strip” (ranging in size from 64 KiB to 1 MiB).
These strips are distributed across the physical drives in the array.
Best performance is obtained by aligning and sizing the strip size to the application I/O request size. The smaller (<= 64 KiB) the strip
size, the longer the background parity scans and rebuilds take and the more impact to the host I/O during these operations. However,
multiple stripes can be checked or rebuilt concurrently.
