I think the "more arms is better" philosophy can be vastly overdone. We reduced our disk arms from 42 down to 7 on one machine and got much better performance. The newer disk drives, controllers, buses, etc blow the old stuff away. But some people have been chanting the "more disk arms is better" mantra for so long they don't want to be bothered with facts.
