While true, any time the (identical) disks have nearly the same amount of free space, the problem would resurface, however intermittently that might be. I considered wasting some space outside of the partition on each disk to give them different sizes (500k would do it) but that feels really hacky. :) I'm experimenting with another solution, and if I make good progress, I'll report as such.


It's only an edge case; a minor issue at best.
