Is there a way of doing disk striping with FreeBsd similar to the MD
patch for Linux ?.

I am using FreeBSD for a news server and the disk bandwidth is killing
the machine, splitting the news spool accross multiple drives is a bit

messy so I was hoping for a neater solution.

Thanks for any info you can pass on
