Yes, well, don't put the journal on the raid partition. Put it
elsewhere (anyway, journalling and raid do not mix, as write ordering
is not - deliberately - preserved in raid, as far as I can tell).

???, do you mean it? which filesystem would you use for a 2TB RAID5 array? I

Whatever one you are using now. Just turn off journalling, or at least move
the journal somewhere else (and safe!).

Or perhaps use metadata-only journalling (but reiser does that by
default, does it not?). That should keep you happy.

always used reiserfs for raid1/raid5 arrays...
