The question was:

>> What is stripe size of the RAID ?

See here for details:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_striping

Obviously with 73G disks stripe size can't be more than 73G,
effectively making it simple concatenation:

Using too low stripe size is bad as it forces several disk
accesses for single IO request.
