It's perhaps not as bad as you imagine. We've been using databases with raw devices on HP machines for a long time now. They perform well and do not cost too much headache in sysadm perspective --- this of course assume you're experience with LVM. Most importantly, it reduce the expensive file system I/O bottleneck.
