I operate a music/video/photo server. OS is x64 Ubuntu, Q6600 processor, 2x 15k300 300gb SCSI U320 Hitachi's in RAID0 with LSI21320-IS

Is it possible to change the stripsize/clustersize on this SCSI card?

50% of requests are for pictures (200kb-400kb), 50% are for videos/music (2-4mb)
90% reads, 10% writes.

What is an ideal strip size for the raid array? What cluster size?
What ext3 stride size should be used to format the array for it to be optomized to the stripe size?

Thanks for the help
