Since you have devices of very different sizes, what you will probably
need to do is use RAIDframe to build sets of disks that are the same (or
almost the same) size, then use the "ccd" driver in "concat mode" to
concatenate them together.  RAIDframe will give you redundancy and
ccd will let you build giant volumes by stringing your RAIDframes together
end-to-end.

You may find performance on your hardware fairly seriously limited by your
memory and XOR bandwidth.
