My understanding that having such a setup (single volume) eases
administration at the cost of performance. It is perfectly acceptable to
favor the performance benefits, you just need to ensure that your
administration of the server is robust enough to handle it properly. It
sounds like this product, though, doesn't provide the correct depth of
administration while recommending the performance weighted setup.
