It's just not designed with your use case in mind. It operates on the level of
allocation extents (if I'm not mistaken), not of whole files.

If you want to join multiple devices with a per-file granularity (so that a
single file is wholely stored on one given device), check out the FUSE
filesystem called mhddfs; I wrote an article about it some time ago:
