Other people have addressed this question.

It does.

The only "weird" problem that I have had with it is that I needed to
make sure md and raid0 support were compiled into the kernel and not
"modularized".  After doing that, using "mdcreate" to make an mdtab
entry, and adding a line to my fstab, everything started "magically"
working.

I have been using a raid0 partition quite heavily for a few months,
and it works very well.

Later,
