Checking the source code of linux.2.6.8.1 , in raid1.c , at line 411 I

found this:

    "Don't change to another disk for sequential reads"

Well , my question is this:

    If there is a sequential read , but there are other disks in the

array which are idle , isn't it a better way to read in chunks from all the
disks ?  I think the transfer rate will be much improved from reading from
more disks , rather the using only one  (altough is sequential read)

Thanks
