Hello,

It does work, I am using it on real hardware (A couple of Dell r510s IIRC),
although my pool only covers 8 drives. I will be able to share configs
tomorrow, but it sounds like they are pretty similar to yours (although
I use GPT labels). The servers are running 8.2-R amd64 but were born
with 8.1-R. I haven't had any problems worth mentioning. The servers
mail/DB servers, not heavily loaded.

Good luck with it, I'm sure you'll find the problem/solution soon :)
