Run SVN or wait to use all 4 disks for short period of time until 0.21 is
released and use the Storage Groups feature of myth which lets you define
multiple recording directories.  You then mount each disk in it's own folder
like:

/mnt/disk1
/mnt/disk2
...

And tell Myth to use each one for recordings and Myth will take care of the
rest.  No LVM taking itself down when one drives goes and no losing disk to
RAID redundancy.
