revise wiki about tools to manage Raid: http://wiki.nas4free.org/doku.php?id=do ... aid5_tools
http://wiki.nas4free.org/doku.php?id=faq:0058
And please consider to migrate to ZFS in future, GEOM RAID is declare obsolete (Well perhaps obsolete is not the word, perhaps "problematic" ) by N4F developers, you can have same performance if use ZFS to manage Raids (pool in the terminology of ZFS), a good guide to understand is: http://forums.freenas.org/threads/slide ... oobs.7775/
