It was for a single not-raid disk (then presumably rsyncing the files 
over to the pool, or something). The thought process seemed to be that a 
single disk always beat a raid-with-parity (ie; raid5, raidz2, etc) when 
it came to write speed.

Yeah, it's just that that's not terribly convenient at the moment. I 
think I'll just toss another drive in there and do some limited testing 
when we start copying things over.
