Oddly enough, the only references Google finds for "full on bit striped
RAID array" are the posts in this group.
The next nearest reference is Wikipedia, which talks about the basic RAID
levels, then nested RAID levels, like "RAID 10" (or 0+1) which is a
striped array that is mirrored.
But it doesn't have anything coming close to "full bit striped array".
How exactly does one "stripe" a bit anyways? Mirrored - sure. Parity -
sure. Striped? What's smaller than a bit?
