I do believe, for database applications, ie. random I/O, a smaller stripe size 
is better.

I've researched adsm.org for this, but couldn't find a recommendation.  Can
anyone recommend a stripe size (and any other relevant attributes) for SSA
RAID-10 for TSM disk storage pools?  We're using 72GB drives.

Thanks.
