<div>Run SVN or wait to use all 4 disks for short period of time until 0.21 is released and use the Storage Groups feature of myth which lets you define multiple recording directories. You then mount each disk in it's own folder like:
</div>
<div> </div>
<div>/mnt/disk1</div>
<div>/mnt/disk2</div>
<div>...</div>
<div> </div>
<div>And tell Myth to use each one for recordings and Myth will take care of the rest. No LVM taking itself down when one drives goes and no losing disk to RAID redundancy.</div></div></blockquote></div><br>This is the best and simplest option. I have been using this for a very long time (I believe more than 1 year) and it has never failed me.
