Oh pardon me, it's BTRFS RAID that's a no-go, which is just as critical
to me as I have a 4 disk 8TB array.
The FAQ goeth on to Say:
-----------------------------------------------------------
This pretty much forbids you to use btrfs' cool RAID features if you
need encryption. Using a RAID implementation on top of several encrypted
disks is much slower than using encryption on top of a RAID device. So
the RAID implementation must be on a lower layer than the encryption,
which is not possible using btrfs' RAID support.
 -----------------------------------------------------------

You saw that I need RAID above.  Were you just trying to criticize my
memory of the FAQ cwillu?
