Yeah, logical volumes has a teeny bit of overhead, same with RAID. both together means you can run older things but things that have a lot of textures loading you will see some drop.

Logical volumes. it slows down IO on this setup but i don’t run IO intensive games. It allow me to just repartition and add drives as needed.

Is it a hot swappable switch? If it is, pop it out and take it apart, you’ll need to push the stems from the holes but once it’s apart it’s fairly trivial to do. If it is not hot swappable you can probably pry it apart but it will be considerably harder.
