Has anyone used postgres w/ an external disk array? I'm sure a single
postgres instance would work fine with one.

While researching the server clustering techniques of other RDBMS I came
upon Oracle 9's "RAC" clustering. It appears to use a stand alone array for
the real storage and multiple "head" servers for the actual work. (This may
be totally inaccurate depending on how late it was when I read this)

What would happen if the same thing was tried with Postgres?
