Yes, it is possible to make 2 or more partitions on each disk and 
configure each pair (hda1-hdb1, etc) with a different raid; however I 
think the boot partition needs to be raid1.

It's really an easy task with id done with debian-installer; I cannot 
say what the multimedia performance is, since I used it for GIS only. 
But I can say that write/read performance on raid0 was really big, and 
there were no disks fails on 3 years of use (well, disks were new at the 
time)

Regards,
Roman
