Will this put the file system on RAID 1 disks in more risk if the computer gets 
suddenly shot off (power loss, damaged power supply) ?

Why http://www.netbsd.org/guide/en/chap-rf.html#chap-rf-setup-filesystems
tells to use FFSv1 instead of FFSv2 ? Is FFSv2 experimental/unstable/slower/xyz than FFSv1 ?

Sorry I must be too tired. Of course this is a memory file system and would 
work regardless of what harddrive devices are in use:
tmpfs          64M      20K       64M     0%    /tmp

Thanks Jeff.
