L1 and L2 parameters on cache-volumes

Hi,

Altough my Squid 2.2.5STABLE-WCCP box is running flawless for several days I now am making plans for migration to a much larger system...
I've read a thread about the amount of caching-directories but I still have a question regarding them :

Suppose you have a 18GB disk that you want to use for caching...should you break the disk into 'volumes' each a couple of gig's and then do a L1=250 L2=64 PER volume ??

Is it BAD for performance to created 18 x 1GB volumes for caching (/CACHE1 and /CACHE2 /CACHE3 etc.etc.) each with their own L1 amount set to about 250 and L2 to about 64

Any comments on this would be appreciated ;-)

Thanx,
Jan Van Ham
