ouch, no fun.. I never use LVM for non-raid user data anymore.. it's ok for OS stuff, because it can be esily replaced.. but user data MUST be on raid for me now..

Personaly, I'm working on saving/building a new disk server for my home.. 5x 300GB SATA and a 3ware controler.. Mmmm.. 1TB in my house.. lots of room for FLACs and VOBs
